Re: [libreoffice-design] ligatures in the logo [was: LibO logo]

Hi Johannes!

Yeah, you're right, we're not talking on the same thing. What I mean by 
kerning is correct pixel anti-alialing artifacts, when a letter becomes 
blurry and you can use a sharpening filter to sharp the edges 
(correcting the blurry). But none sharpening filter changes the shape or 
move objects. I actually didn't know it's called kerning too. Thank you 
for show me that! :-)

By the way, I need to say your work is a actual improvement! I don't 
know yet if I'm updated to your last proposals, but I'll find it and 
give you feedback soon.

See you,
~Paulo
