Here I show v3.10 print (left) versus v3.12 print (right side).
So was something changed in the way of handling fonts in IDE?
Well, we moved to the current version of FreeType (2.4.12 to 2.13.2). The one that we had before was from 2013.
What / Where is FreeType used? I thought I was using a Windows Font?
I am seeing the shoddiness in allot of the verticals n, m, u, h, d, b, p... Lucon under 18 wasn't so great before this change but 18 really looked great! Really pleasant on these old eyes. Now although 19, 20 improves quality a little, it's just not nearly as good plus I lose too many characters per line and too few lines in screen height to go higher. Need over 100 chars across and over 38 lines down.
What was reason to change? It was just newer? Did this change improve something else like font print quality in output screens?
