Can you post a Display using HybridCanvas/VectorCanvas and another using BitBltCanvas? Best if you can include some fonts/sizes you feel are sharp enough, and others that aren't. If file sizes are too big for the list (I believe it is 500kb once encoded in MIME64), please send them to me privately. </blockquote> I'm inserting some images below. Look at the equality symbol for example. I think the problem is that the greying of the font is too much and makes the font blurry. But my comparison is probably unfair, since I'm using the DejaVuBitmap font for the Bitmap case, with doesn't use the greying, or too little; but that's an example of what I mean "sharp". <blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:635DBEDF.1060201@cuis.st"> One question: What Display resolution do you use?
