BeBook PDF Fonts

omro · 11-22-2008, 05:47 AM

Hi,

I was trying out a BeBook the other day. I created a custom PDF from manybooks.net to test it with. It was in the Arial font 10, formatted for a 90x120mm screen and filled the page nicely.

It was clear and very legible on the BeBook, however unlike viewing the PDF on my laptop in the Adobe Reader, there were two flaws:

1) The nice antialiasing of the fonts is absent.
2) The spacing between the letters in words is uneven.

Are either, preferably both, of these fixable?

I know they aren't major issues, however they do make the text a little less attractive to look at.

Thanks

have you upgraded to the Nov firmware update? (v2.01), its supposed to have antialiasing fixed in that firmware?
