Within the 1.6 branch, for better compositing against transparent backgrounds, we used Skia for font glyph rendering. The issue with this is that the hinting defaults to "smooth" which may seem "fuzzier" than fonts rendered with GDI.

Within the 1.7 branch, on Windows, we now use GDI/Cleartype (just like Chrome and IE) for most font rendering.

There is nothing you can do. We had the exact problem. Fonts in awesomium are a lot less readable than in Chrome or IE.

The bottom line is, if your application is gonna sell content, DO NOT USE AWESOMIUM!
