Sure enough, If I "Turn on clear type"
Start->ControlPane->Display->
AdjustClearTypeText/TurnOnClearType
The fonts are rendered anti-aliased.
But, I think I told Qt to override this with
painter.setRenderHint(QPainter::TextAntialiasing,true);
Also, I don't think a Display setting should affect
how my program renders to a file.
Search results suggested that AA required specification
of the background color (which seems reasonable), but the
following did not help.
QBrush bg(Qt::white); painter.setBackground(bg);
painter.setBackgroundMode(Qt::OpaqueMode);
The bottom line is that my original Qt code was good enough
for Linux but not for Windows.
Thanks.
