I believe that basic, 1/3 of a pixel, subpixel positing could be<br>
implemented in Cairo without a huge amount of work. It would of course<br>
only be applicable when subpixel rendering is enabled. Since Cairo and<br>
Pango both already use fractional co-ordinates this should not break<br>
backwards compatibility.<br>
<br>
Both Quartz (OS X) and ClearType (Windows) support this already.<br></blockquote><div><br>You mean the Windows WPF ClearType rasterizer?
