The cleartype packages are back on AUR.

cairo-cleartype: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8110
libxft-cleartype: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8112

- Some shots:

tOHk4cA

tOHk4cw

tOTVrMw

tOHk4dA

- Recommended ~/.fonts.conf:

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
<fontconfig>
 <match target="font">
  <edit mode="assign" name="rgba">
   <const>rgb</const>
  </edit>
 </match>
 <match target="font">
  <edit mode="assign" name="hinting">
   <bool>true</bool>
  </edit>
  <edit name="autohint">
   <bool>true</bool>
  </edit>
 </match>
 <match target="font">
  <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle">
   <const>hintslight</const>
  </edit>
 </match>
 <match target="font">
  <edit mode="assign" name="hinting">
   <bool>true</bool>
  </edit>
 </match>
 <match target="font">
  <edit mode="assign" name="antialias">
   <bool>true</bool>
  </edit>
 </match>
 <match target="font">
  <edit mode="assign" name="lcdfilter">

Re: Cleartype packages are back

Shouldn't this go in community contributions?

Re: Cleartype packages are back

Re: Cleartype packages are back

Very nice, thanks for this. My only comment is that "hinting" appears twice in the .font.conf file provided.
