I still don't get it fully. So xpdf chooses to uses bitmap fonts (with bitmap scaling) over drawing outline/vector glyphs, if the font size is below a certain threshold?
How is this threshold defined? Height, in pixels, on screen? (Or in pt, assuming xpdf knows the screen resolution) Or pt size in document coordinates?
That is, in the latter case I could make all my documents A0 with 100pt-fonts, which would be scaled to the screen size, but prohibits use of bitmap fonts.
In the former case I would simply have to use exotic fonts for which there are no bitmaps on the Iliad, right?
