I have downloaded a font that looks less than desirable if it is not anti-aliased. I can not figure out how to enable anti-aliasing in VS, I have changed the 'Smooth Edges of Screen Fonts' in the system performance options but that does not seem to help.

VS2008 on XP SP3.

What am I missing?

回答1:

Try using ClearType, not Standard font smoothing.

It's in Display properties, Appearance, Effects.

回答2:

In Windows 7:

Control Panel | Display | Adjust ClearType text

This starts a 4-step calibration process.

回答3:

Could it be a problem with the color combination? Some fonts look really ugly on high contrast combinations with a black background.

Also, can you see the difference in the fonts in any other application?

Which font is it?
