IIRC it's ClearType that have (at the time, they're expired now) patent issues, not TrueType. While there were patents for TrueType, it's not intentionally enforced.
- AshamedCaptain 4y agoNo, it's really TrueType. Font hinting. I don't know if the patents were not enforced at all, but it was a headache for many years since many distros would cripple truetype renderers. Never used cleartype or any type of RGB subpixel rendering since it prevents rotating the displays.
