Do not allow font smoothing
This policy setting allows you to specify whether font smoothing is allowed for remote connections.
By default, font smoothing is allowed for remote connections. You can configure font smoothing on the Experience tab in Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) or by using the 'allow font smoothing' setting in a Remote Desktop Protocol (.rdp) file.
If you enable this policy setting, font smoothing will not be allowed for remote connections, even if font smoothing is enabled in RDC or in the .rdp file.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, font smoothing is allowed for remote connections.
