I am not using ClearType and I need to disable font anti-aliasing on RRD graphs. I understand that I need to use a font specifically designed for aliasing. Let's say Tahoma. So I'm using these options: --font-render-mode mono --font DEFAULT:0:Tahoma It disables anti-aliasing and changes the font. But the font looking is "ugly" like any anti-aliased font: https://imgur.com/a/VXiVC I am not familiar with font rendering. I guess there is a problem with hinting or something. It seems possible as there are examples over Internet. http://arma.biz/blog/tools/munin-custom-fonts/ I am trying to achieve font looking like on the bottom picture. I am using RRDtool 1.7.0 on FreeBSD 11.1 What am I doing wrong?
