Ok so apparently I can't send .bmp attachments to this list. Here's an imgur link:

I used Firefox to test native font rendering, and JavaFX 8 b100 (my apologies if something's been fixed since then), using the code Phil just posted to create a Label, explicitly specifying black text & a white background. The font is the default one: Segoe UI, size 12. I've attached a screenshot of the word 'Entry' blown up 400%, with the native text on the left. They are similar but the native text is slightly darker. This is actually quite significant - when viewed at 100% the native text looks clearer and more vibrant. The right side of the 'r' is also cut off in the JavaFX case. Is this related to https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-14187 ? And is there anything I can do to increase the 'blackness' of my JavaFX text and make it more like the native text? Thanks for the help. Rob
