Whenever I perform a table scan my Windows font changes, almost as if ClearType has been turned off. When the scan has finished, the font returns to normal. It applies to all text, text in Tablescanner, text in the poker client, text on my HM HUD, text within Windows, everything. I'm running the Pokerstars client.

Everything actually works fine, it's by no means a huge problem. Just thought I'd report it :)

Actually, thats not a bug :)
The way tablescan reads pokerstars is OCR, or taking a screenshot of the lobby and turning it into text. Currently it can only work if cleartype is off. I have done a little work on making an OCR for cleartype fonts, but it does not seem to be as reliable

That makes sense then. Good to know it's part of the process and not my PC having some kind of crisis. Thanks!
