Just upgraded to a new system, and while I’m mostly enjoying
Win 10, its font rendering is horridiculous on my TV monitor. Stems that are
most definitely the same width generally aren’t, even between different instantiations!
A word like “running” has three different glyph renderings of /n, and none of
them match the /u or the /i. Antialiasing only improves things from “inexhaustably
execrable” to merely “really crappy.” What gives?
I’ve been through different resolutions (even hacking different resolutions into the video driver), tried the Win 8 DPI scaling fix, tried almost every one of the (5×3×5×5… 375‽) ClearType tuner combinations, tried both scaling options, tried GDI++ and even tried MacType. None of these actually work on my system, and they all suck, but MacType is the least objectionable by far (but it's still kinda like the difference between Trump and Dubya).
Comments
I hope that shows up in the post; it definitely does here. Still, now I've got it down to a sub-pixel rendering issue.
Another possibility is that it's an HDMI thing, since DW apps are only halfway decent. I'll try a DVI or VGA connection when I get home (I'm still snowed in here a bowshot from the Great White North).
Do you have a photo?
*Ahem* These are the best I can do with a) an elderly, low-res camera and b) my complete ineptitude.
Again, awfully crappy, but I think it's enough for a guesstimate.
Michael, which browser are you using?
