OSX10.8 font Problem and workaround - tkbd - 08-11-2013 Now, the problem to which a font becomes thick only in the MacOS 10.8 MacOSX environment has occurred. Aren't there those to whom the same bug has happened? I hope to add checkbox for switch the anti-aliasing font option in Preference. Moreover, I think that it is necessary to also make the size of "modifier symbols" scalable. Although this could not solve the cause by which a character became thick, but I considered the evasion measure which can be performed by the User side. 3 Workarounds A) Make font color setting somewhat bright. RGB=(0,0,0) to (0.2,0.2,0.2) Since the contrast of a character changes now, it comes to be readable some. Or, It customizes in a Dark color. (for example, like the latest PhotoshopCC or PixelMater ... ) B) Use a larger font(20 or more px), if you use a large display. C) Introduce another font. About C) plan In Japanese environment, it is still more miserable, and while reading, because the Chinese character katakana hiragana is mixed, a font becomes a bold letter or becomes a thin character. The fault in Japanese environment can improve by introducing a Unicode font called "efont". When this font is used, in Japanese, the thickness of a character is fixed. I trying costomize Makefile for "efont" add and converting when wings build process.(<s>Work in progress</s>)done Edit : Github This is using the same technique as convert CJK font to wingsfont. I think that it is good for the choice of the Unicode font to increase. Currentry conveted efont for v1.5x is here In addition, "efont" contains the Armenia character, the Thailand character, and the Devanagari character.
