You got it the first time. Even LCD maps are still just coverage maps for each color channel separately. ClearType filtering or Harmony shifting ensures that each color channel has the same *integral* coverage to avoid color fringes in thin features - cut all the crap about visual perception. _______________________________________________ Freetype-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel
