Subpixeling is just working on three 3*bigger memDCs but drawing slightly displaced.
However: We're lucky because freetype2 contains subpixel antialiassing. WXP's is howver is hard to beat.

But wouldn't that just be some kind of (probably very nice) anti-aliasing? Because that isn't what ClearType is about. ClearType tries to triple the horizontal resolution by using the fact that LCD screens have red, green and blue subpixels (very small vertical lines, you can see them if you use a magnifying glass or look very closely at the screen). The problem I have with this solution is that it looks a bit messy to me, probably because of the colored edges. Nevertheless, some people seem to like the effect, so it probably would a good idea to implement some day.

Photoshop does oversampling in a memory DC and then applies various filter cores to make the downsize. For different rendering / downsizing 'algorithms'
.... I think.

I'm curious, what kind of subpixel rendering does Photoshop use? I myself can't stand ClearType, so if it's possible to do something similar, only better, that sounds like a good idea to me.

The one thing a lot of people I know who use Windows 2000 have talked about that tempted them to switch to Windows XP despite the bloat is ClearType subpixel rendering technology, an alternate to simple font smoothing introduced in Windows 95.
If ReactOS can offer superior subpixel rendering of fonts (ala Photoshop or better) I could see it seriously competing.
