<![CDATA[Solution: Getting decent looking fonts on PaperS3]]>I'm trying to get decent-looking fonts on the PaperS3. As called by setFont, the fonts are huge and blocky (unaliased). However, If they are subsequently scaled by setTextSize, even wth a scale of 1.0, they are the right size and smooth.

You have to experiment. For example, with Font6 and Font8, punctuation charactersaren't rendered, I am guessing to save space. But Font4 scaled up to 2.0 looks very nice.

I've attached a couple of images that show this effect:

M5.Display.setFont(&fonts::Font4), without scaling:

M5.Display.setFont(&fonts::Font4);
M5.Display.setTextSize(2.0);

Not sure if this is a bug or a feature, but it works!
