AGS: Heroine's Quest font rendering issue

Reported by: Crystal-Shard Owned by:
Priority: normal Component: Engine: AGS
Version: Keywords: font
Cc: Game:

Description (last modified by Crystal-Shard)

TrueType fonts (TTF) render slightly differently between ScummVM (tested in 2.5.1) and AGS. The result in ScummVM is that adjacent letters may blend together, making them harder to read, where AGS puts a black border around letters. See screenshot for an example.

It is different in the daily build, but still not identical to the AGS one.
Not sure if relevant, but game is using an older version of AGS. Are there any plans to include an engine update?

Which game(s) can this be reproduced with?

The screenshot is from Heroine's Quest. But such differences are quite common (even with the upstream interpreter)
