Ugly un-smoothed fonts!

Hi All

In an attempt to reduce overhead in OSX, I've disabled font smoothing for fonts 12 in size and under.

The smaller un-smoothed fonts are now horrid and run into eachother.

Check the image out www.mustardsystems.net/ugly.gif

Could this simply be a corrupt font? I've been messing around with turning off font smoothing for the last few months with the same result.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Nick
 
Technically, the prefix "un" means that something was done, and then, well, undone. You want the word "non." "Non"-smoothed fonts were never smoothed, where as "un"-smoothed fonts were smoothed, and then the smoothing was taken away and they were made jaggy once again. Just thought I'd clear that up. :D

Thank-you scope.

I'm getting so flustered with the way the non-smoothed fonts look that I can't even express myself properly!

Let this post now be known as "Ugly non-smoothed fonts".
