Lpainter Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I was doing some work on a previous graphic, and just could not get text done in Georgia font to match my previous text. I got the font size right, but the text was way too wide. Apparently the kerning was too big. Then after a while of messing with it, I was able to match the text. Apparently the kerning had gotten smaller. What gives on the Kerning change ? I wish paint.net had the ability to change the kerning. Definitely a bug here. Wish I knew how to reproduce it.

pyrochild Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 The kerning differences you're seeing are probably due to Paint.NET changing the rendering engine it uses for text. It used to use GDI+ for text rendering, but semi-recently switched to DirectWrite on Windows 7 and Vista, and GDI (no +) on XP. Or something like that.
