It could be the hinting that Mario referred to. There are some
notes (not by me) that the T2K values produced in JDK 1.4 when
hinting was available were more correct than previously - when
there was no hinting.
But Swing wanted values that looked right for some common cases
and 1.0 was excessive.
Phil, is it possible that these rounding effects are different in T2K
vs. FT? In this case, the rounding should probably be done in the font
backends altogether. However, I doubt I fully understand what exactly is
going on here. My understanding is that we need to round at least up to
the next full
Mario,
If you look around lines 567-573 you'll see a comment to the
effect that it was decresed fom 0.99 to 0.95 because that higher
value was causing problems. This was back in 2001 and all I can
recall from then is that it took a long time to get the right
formula ..
