Yep, exactly the same behaviour here too.

I was interested in being able to use truetype fonts and antialiasing through diskfont.library (i.e. throughout the workbench/all interfaces etc.) - atleast, this is what I gather can be achieved.

Any hints or tips would also be welcome here too.

Cheers,
James

Wow, great stuff - antialiased fonts working well on my AIAB setup!

I had to disable the picture.datatype library as my truecolour backgrounds were not displaying correctly, however everything else is great!

Two questions - what is the distribution status of this package?  Would it be possible to use the truetype font rendering (and more) within the AIAB package?

Also, how might one add more TTF fonts?  I have attempted to use the ttf.library preferences manager to generate .otag and .font files, but no luck.

Cheers,
James
