Font rendering comparison

Jun 28, 2008 | Design

I noticed safari render the font smoother than Firefox when i did the browser compatibility check for upcoming theme.

I use Windows XP with latest Firefox 3 and Safari 3.1.1.

Here’s what it look in the browser.

Font family : Arial sans-serif 11px.

I prefer Arial in Firefox. It is more readable. Safari smooth engine makes the letter weight increase and decrease the letter spacing. Firefox win.

Font family : Georgia serif 18px.

Safari text rendering is smooth compare to firefox (too sharp and looks like crap.) Safari win

Conclusion

If Steve Job never learn about typography. Mac never get multiple type faces*. That what he said in his Commencement address at Stanford in 2005. That’s one of the best speech i ever heard.

*PS : at 4.38 “Windows just copy the mac” < Owned
