This creates a much better intercharacter spacing, especially for normal (smaller) font sizes. DirectWrite allows to reposition characters within a paragraph line by a fraction of a pixel. Under GDI, when zooming document text in or out, the intercharacter spacing is inconsistent most of the time because this spacing is a result of rounding precise values to pixels. Even when the zooming factor in Atlantis is 100%, you actually see text zoomed down from a much more precise zooming factor (coordinate space). Version 4.3.2 uses DirectWrite with grayscale antialiasing: if you zoom in screen captures of document text in old and new versions of Atlantis, the ClearType antialiasing is more colorful, while the grayscale antialiasing uses shades of the text color.īut the main difference between GDI and DirectWrite is that the latter supports subpixel positioning of characters. DirectWrite supports two antialising methods: ClearType and grayscale. Both techniques support text antialiasing. Previous versions of Atlantis use the GDI mechanism. Version 4.3.2 uses the DirectWrite mechanism (when available) to render document text onscreen.
