Nicolas, Windows uses 96 dpi, so if you want the same size as MS Word on Windows, you should be using 96 as the resolution.

Definitely.

At which resolution? 96 dpi? 600 dpi? Werner I'm using : FT_Set_Char_Size(face, 0, fontSize * 64, 72, 72); It's 28 points, and the resolution is 72dpi. My glyph is bigger in Word but with ftdiff, I've got exactly the same size. I guess that ftdiff uses Pixmap font ? I'm working with outline and activating Multisampling for the anti-alisaing is time consuming, moreover the results are always worse than ftdiff ( but better than without AA). Nicolas
