Hello, I am emailing you in hopes that you can help me understand a problem I am having with the Free UCS Outline Fonts (http://www.nongnu.org/freefont), because I found you in the list of developpers on http://savannah.nongnu.org/project/memberlist.php?group=freefont I am a regular user of the FreeSans and FreeSerif fonts, but an issue occured to me today as I was creating a screenshot for abiword: those fonts seem to "bleed colors" for a reason nobody could explain to me yet. I generally had answers such as "your font smoothing/subpixel hinting preferences are not set properly", however, I am using a LCD screen, and everything else is perfectly crisp while aliased. I have noticed this on every other computer I used (that means CRT screens), and I have seen the same results. Please see the attachment "color bleeding.png". I had other suggestions like "well, just use the Microsoft fonts if you are not happy". I believe that Free* are in every way superior, they look good, and they are open, and I do not wish to be locked to use closed fonts while there is this great alternative available. What could be the cause of this "unreadability" on my screens? Also, see comparison.png as a proof that my setup is "normal". Best regards, Jeff Fortin
