Hi!

Is there a way to improve FiraCode readability in small sizes? Currently, the font size of 9 looks like follows:

app cpp_ master _-coursework-_qt_creator_2016-01-01_19-30-21

Arial (on the left) seem to be much more clear and readable than Fira Code (on the right).

Are you using Fira Code version 1.102? It has hinting turned on. How does Fira Mono looks under the same conditions?

Yes, version 1.102. Downloaded it just yesterday.

Fira Mono (ttf version) looks great:

Fira Mono (otf version) looks bad:
