I just tried looking at a PDF in konquerer. On my system, the text is not
sub-pixel rendered (SPR) like it is in firefox (and probably chrome) or in
the ancient Adobe acroread program I still have on my system.
Anyone care to chime in and tell me whether their version of konquerer does
sub-pixel rendering?
(If you don't know what I am talking about with SPR, bring up a PDF
document, and then using a program like xmag to zoom in on some of the
text, and see if vertical strokes are have coloured edges.)
Thanks.
Jim
