Re: [ft] Outline not smooth?

[Satz Klauer]

Hi,

meanwhile I got my code working including the Bezier calculation
according to the meaning of the on/off flags within the outline.

Unfortunately my Bezier algorithm seems not to be the correct one, the
letters aren't round enough. Means I can see they are round but not as
strong as they should be. As an example the letter "b" isn't really
round but has some round edges instead.

My bezier algorithm works based on a Bernstein calculation and is
similar to the one from
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/recipes/BezirCurves.aspx?msg=3283253 .

So may be this ist the wrong Bezier calculation algorithm? Is there an
reference implementation available that uses the correct algorithm?
