Follow-up Comment #9, bug #41308 (project octave):

The freetype-based rendered is using anti-aliasing. Glyphs are rendered using
FT_RENDER_MODE_NORMAL, which is anti-aliasing, as described here [1].

If you want to compare to gnuplot, you should make sure you use the same font
and the same size in both cases. Note that at the moment, octave always
interpret font size as being a pixel size, which usually ends up with smaller
text on screen, because gnuplot will interpret is as a point size (and today's
screens use dpi > 72).
