Just got my pixl.js and the first thing I notice was how poorly the font renders. I took the clock example, added two buttons to increase/decrease the font size to see if it was just a scaling problem. Nope: the font looks pretty pixelated no matter what size you use.
I did a quick browser through the github but couldn't find the 'font resource' that defines the font used when you call setFontVector (which I assume is the right way to set the font?)
Clearly this is a vector based solution, so there will be pixelating artifacts but my guess is that even cleaning up the vector a bit should help the font scaling quite a bit.
Either way, i'd like to help. What is the right files to be playing with if I'd like to improve the font legibility?
