Thu, Jan 21, 2016

The previous post demonstrated how to render text on the GPU directly from its bezier curve representation. If you zoomed out far enough you may have noticed the text shimmering. This new demo implements a fix for the issue. The source material is Leo Tolstoy’s War And Peace from Project Gutenberg - 1273 pages with 2.7 million glyphs.
