about 75-80% through it throws an error:
"Failed to load. Error:The specified module could not be found."

Are there any prerequisites that I need to install prior to installing this? I 
tried to search other issues and the wiki but found nothing similar.

Thanks,
Hassan.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Turn on Mactype
2. Work in Photoshop, and change the anti-alias settings within the program.
3. Photoshop crashes

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Mactype should anti-alias the fonts within a working graphics project when the 
application software is doing that only. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest MacType.. and Photoshop CS6

Please provide any additional information below.
Is there a way to disable anti-aliasing in a certain program? So I can turn it

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It requires to install MacType. Can it have a portable zip version?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows XP and Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.
Can you please add a portable zip version of MacType?

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install MacType 
2. Restart system


-What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output: font rendering is managed by MacType through the entire 
system, apps show new fond rendering

Actual experience: standard Win8 font rendering remains active and CPU is 
overloaded by several processes at once (>35% on a Core i5). All issues 
disappear as soon as MacType is uninstalled.  

-What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
MacType v2012.04.06 on Windows 8 Release Preview (build 8400) x64


-Please provide any additional information below.
Teste running as service and from tray. Same behaviour applies.

I'm new to MacType and had to play with the settings a bit to get things to 
look fairly right. All is well in Chrome except for some crazy shadows in the 
address bar.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Configure MacType to render text with a light, close shadow, such as by 
using the configuration below.
2. Go to any page other than a website's home page, such as by manually 
entering a URL in the address bar, like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeType

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

All text in the address bar should look the same. Instead, the non-domain-name 
parts of URL are rendered with the incorrect shadow. It appears to be too dark 
and offset in the opposite direction.

Hey guys, this project is wonderful, but still I'm experiencing some small 
problems on my computer.

I'm using sogou explorer from time to time, and I find that mactype never 
renders its webpages when it's switched to IE compatible mode. As far as I 
know, they are using IE 7 as their IE core.

I'm running on: Win7 Ultimate
Mactype mode: Mactray privileged compatible mode
Mactype version: 2012.1022

Please feel free to contact me if further details on my system is need. I'd 
love to help improve this project. Thanks.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Mactype
2. Install Kaspersky Internet Security 2013
3. Check for updates to Kaspersky Internet Security 2013

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Kaspersky should update itself and definitions but it freezes and then fails. I 
unstall Mactype and it updates just fine.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2012.1022.0 on Windows 7 Ultimate x64

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open http://code.google.com/p/mactype/source/browse/
2. Then you can see that there is no source code.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected to see the hg repository that contains the source code, but it seems 
that the repository is empty.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
On Windows 7.

This is more of a feature request than an issue, feel free to close it if you 
want! It would be nice if MacType would automatically disable it's font 
rendering when connected to a machine via Remote Desktop Connection (RDP). As 
it stands right now, you have to disable MacType manually when using RDP. It's 
no huge deal, but would be nice to improve the RDP experience on a lower speed 
connection. Not all people might want this, so maybe a setting would be even 
better? :)

非常感谢，安装了2012.10.22这个版本

如题，还是希望IE10的页面效果，急盼，谢谢谢谢

I'm seeing some kerning issues with mactype. I was previously using gdipp and 
it rendered fonts with better kerning (minor issues, but overall better). I've 
tried different settings to get close to gdipp's rendering but never succeeded. 
I'm not sure whether it's a setting problem or some deeper difference between 
gdipp and mactype. I'm attaching screenshots as well as configurations.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
MacType 1.2012.0406.0
gdipp x64 0.9.1

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
View text that includes small fonts and the "w" letter (YouTube on Chrome, 
default settings for example).

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Kerning is incorrect, the "w" letter looks like it has a space following it.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2012_0406 on Windows 7 x64.

Please provide any additional information below.
Please see attached screenshot. Green boxes show correct kerning while red 
boxes show the issue. Especially notice "views" on the green box and "views" on 
the red box.
This issue existed in gdipp as well.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Accessing to any Korean website
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
 - For example, 응 the word yes has the to ㅇ's on the top and the bottom. However, I do not know what the problem is, but in every website, it shows as ㅡ not letting the two ㅇ's appear. 으 also appears as ㅡ.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

x64


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The fonttype doesn't display correctly, works fine in mozilla firefox 13 and 
internet explorer 9

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
MacType version:    1.2012.0406.0
MacTray version:    1.0.4.1529
MacTuner version:   1.0.2.284

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use Pale Moon web browser
2. Notice that text is not being rendered by mactype

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected mactype to render text inside Pale Moon. I see the text being 
rendered by the default windows rendering system instead.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Pale Moon 15.3 on Windows 7 Professional x64 SP1


Please provide any additional information below.
The only part of the window that is being rendered by mactype seems to be the 
title bar. Everything else is not.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run Monodevelop
2. Double-click MacType tray icon to see "Process loading status" window
3. Uncheck "Hide inaccessible system processes"

MacType is unable to hook Monodevelop IDE process, thus fonts are rendered with 
ClearType, but not with MacType


MacType version 1.2012.1022.0 @ Windows 7 x64

See attachments

As the title says, at the moment, Macbyte doesn't fully work with Visual Studio 
2012 running on Windows 8. Only part of the visual studio is correctly 
rendered, the rest (mostly the code window) is still being rendered by windows' 
default font rendering engine.
Please see attached screenshot.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open "Fonts" folder in Windows directory through Windows Explorer
2. Browse a while

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output : Font preview displayed correctly.
The real output : "Fonts" folder suddenly closed.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows Explorer 6.1.7600.16385 on Win7 x64 SP1

Please provide any additional information below.
The same thing reproduced when using gdipp 0.76 stable (both version). Somehow 
fixed on gdipp 0.91 beta (also both version).

MacType 1.2012.0406.0 - Windows 7 64 Bit

Please provide any additional information below.

Hello,

As I know, MacType uses patched fontconfig and freetype2, which is originally 
used in most modern Linux distributions.

Could you please release the patch of fontconfig and freetype2, along with 
configuration tools for Linux?

I am sorry that this may cost you much more time and energy, but it will really 
be a good news for Linux users.

BTW: I have tried infinality's freetype2 patch, but it is not compatible with 
some software and causes problems. :-( 

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install MacType
2. Make sure it's actually in effect
3. Restart computer and uninstall MacType
4. Restart computer again and open Win8 start menu

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Should be back to normal, instead the font looks very messed up

Only uninstalled MacType because of a strange bug with the cursor where it 
would look as if it were loading something constantly, then noticed this after 
uninstalling. Hope these issues are fixed soon :)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
MacType does not render in Microsoft Office 2013 and on all Metro apps as well 
as the Start Screen

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.2012.1022.0 on Windows 8 Pro (x64)

Please provide any additional information below.
Perhaps the code on which the Start screen and Metro apps and MS Office 2013 
are not the same as the other Windows applications? Here are some of the 
screenshots showing failure to render in Word 2010 (side by side with Google 
Chrome)

Thank you for looking into the issue and I hope this gets fixed in the next 
release. I really love MacType

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Install a multi-monitor software solution on your computer (see Additional 
Information section below)

Please provide any additional information below.

Everything is seen on the first screenshot: the unicode strikethrough symbol 
isn’t rendered properly (for example Georgia font (like on screenshot), 
Lucida Grande etc.).

This problem does not reproduce in all fonts: cf. screenshot 2 with Tahoma 
font—there it’s rendered closer to normal (still not perfectly).

Also, I think that it’s unlikely that the problem is only with one symbol, 
perhaps there is some class of symbols which do all fail

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Update Google Chrome to the latest version (22.0.1229.79)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Fonts rendered with Mactype; Mactype not working "inside" Chrome.

different sites with the same font/fontsize and the output is the same.

It's not a big deal but maybe good to know if u are updating it for the future.

Posting a picture so you can see how it looks.

Keep up the good work!

What steps will reproduce the problem?

chrome versions) see screenshots mactype01.png (soundcloud widget), 
mactype02.png (zvooq.ru)
i’m using win2008 server r2

Also (in fact not an issue but asking for help), though I like the rendering of 
mactype (especially all the possibilities for tweaking various font 
properties), but still the picture provided by gdipp feels better to me. (see 
screenshots: mactype03.png—mactype, mactype04.png—gdipp). just wanted to 
now whether i am just stupid and there exists an ini file for mactype that 
would produce a picture exactly like the latter.
Thanks in advance!

As a long-time user of gdipp, I've been limited to using Chrome 17.0.963.83 in 
order for text to be smoothed.

This version of Chrome is getting a little old now, so I decided to transition 
from gdipp to Mactype, due to the 'Support Chrome 18+' claim on the project 
homepage.

After spending a little time adjusting the various settings to match the 
appearance of my gdipp configuration, I was satisfied with the results.  
However it appears that the UI and content text are not actually smoothed.

May I therefore ask if MacType does actually support Chrome 18+ on Windows XP?

Thanks!

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Exclude Program
2. Restart Program

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I was expecting the program to be excluded, but the rendering was enabled for 
it.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
MacType 1.2012.0406.0, Win7 Premium 64-Bit

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Opening a site with a drop down menu

3. Now go to font settings, check the preview of fonts.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When you check with mouse the blurried, miss-rendered text and go to font 
settings, you are going to see at preview section font is looking as it should 
be while the in-document looking of the same font is ugly.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
MacType is latest. Office 2013 on Win 7. (All updates are done)

Please provide any additional information below.
I didn't checked it with other Office versions so I do not know if this is a
