Mac OS X font rendering on Windows

Got a great link from the Lifehacker site that fixes one of my pet peeves with Windows. Yes, I know that a lot of people prefer the Windows font rendering over the Mac OS one (and still more can’t see a difference), but I can’t stand the way fonts look on Windows. In an earlier post, I had pointed out how Safari on Windows painstakingly implemented the Mac OS font rendering method, which had endeared it to me.

Now getting the Mac OS style rendering on Windows is as easy as running a small background app. Called GDI++, the application runs in the system tray and lets you see fonts as their designers had intended. Full instructions available here. Read more and see the before and after examples at the link below.
