[Qt-interest] Is Qt the best choice for cross-platform desktop GUI applications? Mac OS X (Cocoa, Aqua)? KDE, GNOME, Windows 7

By "print", do you mean "print to paper" and/or "print to file"?

I wonder if Qt knows about this.  I think for any bugs, including Mac OS X UI bugs, we should report them and/or check if they are already reported?

Just print a QTextDocument

For the on-screen stuff, it is usually related to a sizeHint issue, so the text is cut off. I've seen that on Linux too.. But never on Windows.

The screen shots are xcode, text wrangler, qt's sdi example.

Are you saying that (xcode and text wrangler) font is correct, while (qt's sdi example) is somehow incorrect?

I'm not sure what you mean?  I don't use email lists enough to know if they usually block attachments, so I'll try screen shots in the next email.

Also, when printing letters run together. While this is a problem for rn (r n looks like m, in Arial) Qt will do it with 's' and 'e' in very inconsistent manner. Sometimes 's' and 'e' touch, sometimes they don't and that is true for the letter next to them as well. Sometimes "se" bleeds, and sometimes it doesn't. it makes it look really sloppy.

Don't you see broken kerning?  For example, when displaying the string 
"Yo", the "o" should be under the "Y", but it isn't.  In text oriented 
apps (where the focus is on actually reading text), this makes the 
application look lame.
