Who said that the answer was clearly "no"? AFAICT nobody said that. Instead, people made numerous suggestions that I should try out to see if they can be used to replicate the ATSUI look. So far these attempts haven't been successful but nobody has said that it would be impossible, well, except you that is ;) > > Now you’re just setting yourself on fire. > I can think of innumerable reasons why advance widths may be > different on different systems: Me too, but here is the catch: When rendering the text using ATSUDrawText() and CTLineDraw(), the pixels match *exactly*. There is not a single difference, it is exactly the same, pixel by pixel. That's why I am of the opinion that it should also be possible to achieve an identical look when drawing strings glyph by glyph and manually calculating the advance. If it isn't possible, that's ok, but at least I can try. -- Best regards, Andreas Falkenhahn mailto:andr...@falkenhahn.com _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
