Re: Can't use Magick++ under Windows with Code::Blocks

I don't know Code::Blocks, so I'm guessing a bit.... This sounds like a "name mangling" problem. In C++ function names are mangled to include things like parameter types. This mangling is compiler specific (even sometimes changing from one version of the same compiler to another). Linking ...

Re: Poor text rendering with Annotate in newer Magic++

It's not the version of FreeType. If I copy a CORE_RL_ttf.dll from a prebuilt v6 ImageMagick++ over the one in V7 I get the same poor results. ( I was surprised that doing this actually worked). If I link My app to the V6 version of ImageMagick++ I get the better results. (only for release builds, f...

Poor text rendering with Annotate in newer Magic++

We recently upgraded from MSVC-2010 to MSVC-2017 and moved from ImageMagick-6.9.1-Q16 to ImageMagick-7.0.7-15. The text rendered with Image::annotate is noticeably more jagged with the new version.
