Hi Andrew: Those new antialiased results that you showed for -dev png look great. Thanks for adding this capability to plfreetype.c Currently, only the gd-related devices (png, jpeg, and gif) and wingcc take advantage of this capability, but I am sure others who have written device drivers that depend on plfreetype.c will want to take advantage of this additional capability.
