Hi,

Thanks for your answer.
I tried and indeed it works: I used a pangolayout (with hinting turned
off) for display in a widget to reflect what was written in the
GtkTextView. I noticed the same discrepancies of text layout as when I
printed. I then printed and the results matched the on screen
pangolayout.

Now the problem is I want to use and print the GtkTextView. How do I
turn off hinting in a GtkTextView?
But maybe I didn't understand you well?

Thanks again.
