Is it possible to change font kerning for rendered annotations?

We disabled the font kerning with CSS and we can see that this rule is respected in edit mode.
But we need text annotations to also not use kerning in rendered annotations. Is that possible to disable?

We added styles to the header of index.html that comes from the SDK installation:

<style>
    * {
      kerning: none !important;
      font-kerning: none !important;
    }
  </style>

David

Hello dlednik,

Currently we use the Quill Editor under the hood for Text input, at the moment we do not support adjusting Kerning out of the box.

I will create a feature request for this.

Best regards,
Tyler

Tyler,

Problem is not with the editor;
The editor respects CSS rule that we added.

The problem is the rendered annotation does not respect kerning.
In the video you can see that letter e jumps back under T once the editing is finished and you re-render the content in the textbox.

So we need the ability to set/unset font kerning in the whole SDK, including rendered annotations.

p.s. Can you give any rough estimate on how long would a feature like this need to be implemented?

regards,
David
