I honestly can not understand how people can read and write computer programs with fonts with smooth edges. Computer programs were born on the pixel raster displays! There's a fine font called Fixedsys Excelsior; it​ looks like an 8x16 pixel font, where in fact it's drawn with TTF outlines. I've added (and keep adding) some programming ligatures to it and can't be happier. https://github.com/kika/fixedsys

I use SVG for the browser and for PDF/printing I reuse the same SVG plus some text, also in SVG for simplicity and then run this combined SVG through SVG2PDF service. The service is dead simple and up for grabs for everyone: https://github.com/kika/svg2pdf
