Hi Bringfried,

Short answer: You have, unfortunately, overlooked nothing. :(

Long answer: You can generate AA fonts in postscript or Object
Graphics. Object graphics won't work if you are using the MAP_*
routines, and PS isn't good if you want quick display/results. For
nice fast Anti Aliased fonts to your screen, you have overlooked
nothing.

-k.
