64. Turn On/Off Cleartype
Clear Type is enabled by default on Windows
Vista. Originally the type face was used to visually
improve information on a laptop LCD screen. While
clear type was also available in Windows XP, in XP,
it was not enabled by default.
Personally, even on a desktop PC i find clear
type quite sharp. However, some people may not like
clear type so here is a way to disable (or enable it
after you have disabled it).
1/ Right click on a vacant part
of your desktop.
2/ From the drop down menu that
appears, Click Personalize.
3/ In the Personalize window,
Click the Windows Color and Appearance
option.
4/ In the color and appearance window,
Click the open classic appearance properties
for more color option.
5/ In the classic appearance properties
window, Press the Effects
button.
6/ A small effects window will
now appear.
7/ Under the use the following method to
smooth edges of screen fonts section you
will see an option box.
8/ Click the arrow to the
Right of the box and select either
standard or cleartype
depending upon which you require.
9/Next click OK followed by
OK again to close the classic
appearance setting window.
10/ Finally Close the
personalization window.
