Ok thanks for checking. I wrote the TCL extension some 4 years ago now and haven’t looked at it since. It’s very simple so I would be surprised if the behavior changed.

pdfontloader is working ok for our needs. We have the following:
pure-data/msw/pdprototype.tgzhas an "tcl/tk-85-i386" dlland
pure-data/msw/pdfontloader-64bit-for-wish86.ziphas an "tcl/tk-86-amd64" dllThey get extracted accordingly on Miller's builds. It also works when building Pd with autotools that gets the i386:(wish85.exe tclsh85.exe) from
pdprototype.tgz--

I wonder if the pdfontloader needs to be recompiled for TK 8.6+. I believe the build distributed with Pd on Windows was built for Tk 8.5.

The font detection & loading looks like it's working fine via our custom pdfontloader:

The font on Windows and Linux has always been bold:

What may have changed is how Tk calls the Windows API to do the rendering. I would ask more of a Windows dev about this (Christof, Lucarda, etc).
How does it look if you add "-font-weight normal" to the startup flags and restart Pd? To confirm, the using font line should the change to:
using font: DejaVu Sans Mono normal
Another thing to try: "-font-face Courier" then see if the rendering is better with a native font for the system. If so, this could indicate some issue or change with how we load a local TTF font file.

Turn log level to 4. What is the font debug info printed at start?

hi,
i just upgraded from 52.1 to 52.2 on Windows 10.
i noticed:
first: text in Pd-console looks much clearer.
then: in 52.1 (and before(?)) the font in the Pd-console was different from the one in the patches.
now in 52.2 the font in the console and in the patches seems the same, BUT the patches look like having an ugly bold version.
i was used to that, but of course now i would like to have the same clear image as in the console.
