idea:could the words be more smooth

[qhelie]

the words displayed in ver1.3 seems rather rough compared with in ver1.2,could it be as smooth as it was before?

Do you have screenshots to show this ?

If you are referring to the rendering quality, Foxit Reader has improved quite a lot for current version compared with previous versions. And we will continue to improve the rendering quality of Foxit Reader. Of course, a sample file to illustrate the problem will be much helpful.

first let me say i am exited about the free foxit reader. but like others i find a lot of letters rendered poorly as compared to the adobe reader. as others seldom post examples i show here what i mean: a 1 page pdf and screenshots (partial) from foxit 1.3.1111 and acrobat 5.1 on a win98 system/true color; i suspect that foxit does no antialiasing as adobe does ...

If I zoom in into your demo.pdf file, the font is fine.

It seems that foxitreader has trouble to resize the font!

I have the same problem with some files I created with PDFCreator 0.8. I first thought it was a problem with PDFCreator, but when I zoom or print the file, the font is fine.

I've got a similar problem here with this file
http://www.free-av.com/antivirclassic/docs/AV-PE-Classic-Version-07-Deutsch.pdf

The font is very very bad!!

But if I zoom in, all is fine.

Yes but when I zoom in nothing is OK. When you look at the letters you can see that they are full of "pixels" not like vektor.

We said the same thing. See http://www.foxitsoftware.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=353
This problem will occur easily on bold fonts in build 1111. Past versions had no such a problem.
