Hi,
I have noticed that several of the non-Latin fonts we ship in Fedora contain
partial hinting information, usually not covering (or covering only very
poorly) the intended target alphabet(s) of the fonts.
In particular, several of our CJK fonts include hinting information only for
Latin characters, or otherwise covering few to no CJK ideographs.
This is a problem because the version of Freetype in Fedora 15 will see that
there is some hinting bytecode and try to use the bytecode interpreter
rather than the autohinter on the entire font. If the relevant characters
are then not actually hinted, those characters will be entirely unhinted,
looking blurry.
