If you're using ClearType...
You might want to tweak around a bit with the font rendering settings for optimal clarity. I noticed that things were a bit too muddy in IE9 (due to the way it renders text, same thing also happens with Firefox), so I decided to do some ClearType setting tweaking.
The following applies to Windows 7 and 8. Windows XP and Vista users should head to the ClearType Tuner hosted on Microsoft Typography. Users of other operating systems should have a way to adjust sub-pixel anti-aliasing - instructions vary. Note that the instructions include large images.
Spoiler Alert:
After tweaking them, well, gone are muddy text, and here comes super-sharp text. Without it being too thin, of course! (Do make sure that your monitor is properly adjusted for proper display of images, too. There's the Calibrate color option for that.) Last edited by Twiggy; February 19, 2012 at 04:46:39 AM. |
