------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-10-28 12:30 ------- Fonts are anti-aliased by default in everything except GTK-1.x applications since Mandrake 9.1 in default installations. Either: 1)Try with a different user account or remove your ~/.fonts.conf (I think) 2)Tell us which version of freetype2 you have installed: $ rpm -q freetype2 Fonts look fine for me and have for a long time. Note, there are some other options available for users of LCD monitors, like sub-pixel hinting, which can be set in the KDE Control Center or with 'gnome-font-properties' Maybe it would help to attach a small screenshot of an affected site (otherwise it is difficult to compare fonts). -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: No matter what browser I use, and what fonts I use in the kde/gnome control center, when I go to some sites I always get nonantialiased, jagged fonts. For example the mandrake club. This is very ugly: just look at the italic fonts. Also non italic fonts are not ok: small fonts do look well, but medium and large fonts don't. I would like an option in the mandrake control center to say "always use antialiased fonts for WEB-BROWSING". (On the other hand, I still want to use the default font in konsole, which is not antialiasing). Debian's fontconfig prompts you with that question. Better yet would be: "always use antialiased fonts if the font size is over XXX".
