- azakai 15y agoThe article mentions that pdf.js uses some new Firefox features. It should work correctly in FF7 (nightly) and not FF5 (stable).
- notatoad 15y ago"We said above that pdf.js renders the Tracemonkey paper perfectly … if you’re running a Firefox nightly. On a Windows 7 machine where Firefox can use Direct2D and DirectWrite. If you ignore what appears to be a bug in DirectWrite’s font hinting. The paper is rendered less well on other platforms and in older FIrefoxen, and even worse in other browsers"
- andhow 15y agoYeah, it seems to be a Linux thing; Andreas was explaining that the font-rendering is highly platform-dependent.
