Thanks!
 
lol, yeah...GIMP isn't the best in my book, but until I can get a machine that can handle the load of running XP under virtualization side by side with my Fedora 7 XSI animation workstation, i'll have to deal with it.  But its good to know it can be done, all I need is for it to be either on or off.  Clients are sometimes picky about what the comp looks like vs the live site.
 
Again, thanks for the info!

Hi,
 
AFAIK Inkscape doesn't have the possibility to switch off text antialiasing, and I didn't hear of something like that planned for the future.
 
In GIMP (brrrrrr... what an awful interface!!!!), the text tool has a switch that toggles on/off antialiasing of text (no selection of the antialiasing type like in photoshop though...). See an attached screenshot of a text with antialiasing turned off and on.
 
IMO, the possibility to switch off antialiasing will be almost obsolete in the near future (at least in the field of webdesign), because in Vista and MacOSX the fonts are antialiased. Win98, 2K and XP users will switch to Vista with time, so more than 90% of the users will see antialiased text in their browsers in the next 3-4 years...

Subject: [Inkscape-user] Text Anti-aliasing

 
Hello!
 
In Adobe Photoshop, you are able to adjust the text anti-aliasing level (strong, smooth, crisp, none).  Useful for simulating web page designs (in which live text is not AAed).
 
Does something like that exsist in Inkscape now or under construction in any future build?
 
(if GIMP or other programs can do it, feel free to mention that to me)
 
Thank you!
