Does Adobe use Cooltype in Adobe Reader for Pocket PC 2.0?

Here is text from the Adobe site on CoolType.

To combat the "jaggies," traditional grayscale font anti-aliasing (also called "font smoothing") technology smoothes out text by filling in the edges of bitmapped characters with various shades of gray pixels, which can make text at small point sizes appear blurry. CoolType. creates clearer, crisper type using a font-rendering technique called color anti-aliasing, which works on digital liquid crystal display (LCD) screens such as those in laptops, handheld devices, and flat-panel desktop monitors. Unlike conventional anti-aliasing, which manipulates only whole pixels, CoolType controls the individual red, green, and blue subpixels on a digital LCD screen. <http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/cooltype.html>
