I don't read that many PDFs and few of those have the complex structure that anti-aliasing would help with so can't say how well it works.
This firmware also adds more visual feedback for accessibility. The tabs now highlight black when you press them, and the multi-page settings have a scrollbar on the right side. The font handling has been completely refactored, meaning I'll need to redo the advanced fonts control patch. Also, the monospace font for epubs has been partially fixed, and a lot of cruft from the old reader has been removed. The WiFi dialog has also been made larger had its padding increased along with a scroll bar.

Also, the patches are about 80% done now.
