| Summary | 0003512: Print preview: antialiasing errors | ||||
| Description | Antialiasing in print preview doesn't work as expected: -- "Anti-alias Text" doesn't work at all -- "Anti-alias Graphics" results in antialiasing text | ||||
| Additional Information | This is a part of a longer report I've received per mail from a Polish DTP professional (a pl.comp.dtp reader). He tested it both on Win32 and Linux, I can confirm it for the 1.3.3cvs from march 22 (tested with both GS ESP 8.15.1 and GS AFPL v. 8.14.3.1) | ||||

|
also tested with latest afpl ghostscript 8.53 (on windows2k) |
|
|
anti alias text only works on ps-fonts, anti alias graphics for the other things as youll notice we have put a tooltip for that on the two checkboxes |
|
|
This is related to how subsetting and TTF/OTF embedding works. Currently in these cases fonts are converted to outlines and therefore text becomes graphics. |
|
|
Ok, this obviously is one of these usability issues users complain about. If I (truly not a Scribus novice) and another user with thorough dtp background have troubles finding out what it's about and waste our time submitting this bug report, then, obviously, there is some space for improvement and the tooltips are not sufficient. Luckily, this one can be easily solved. Please consider simply changing the description of the two checkboxes to reflect what they are really meant for, namely to: -- Antialias Type1 fonts -- Antialias graphics, TTF and OTF fonts |

Why not combine both options into one "Use Antialiasing" ? |
|
|
>>Why not combine both options into one "Use Antialiasing" ? This would be the smarter solution, I guess |
|
|
Reminder sent to: Mrdocs, what do u think here? Combine into one? |
|
|
Combine into one. Makes sense to me. |
|
|
Print preview antialiasing options are now combined into one. |
|
|
jghali: I cannot check it myself because of 0004084, but it looks like you haven't done it in 1.3.4cvs yet. |
|
|
it has been in 134cvs since the time i resolved this bug |
|
|
Ok, I missed that piece of information in "fixed in version". Resolving. |
