I wrote this code. It is the magic to do text with AA, subpixel render
(or not), in any color, over any color, and over any color depth, with
good performance. It doesn't handle InfiniteForms. I just tried in
Squeak 3.7 (that uses the older simple 1bpp fonts), and it is not
supported there either.
I think it might be possible with an intermediate for for doing rgbmul
between the font and the infiniteForm. Not trivial, and a lot slower,
though.
The script I used for testing is:
Display getCanvas drawString: 'contents' in: (10@20 extent: 100@20)
font: TextStyle defaultFont color: (InfiniteForm with: Color red)
