Perhaps, you still have certain misunderstanding of the impact of this font hinting issue. To make it clear I have made a couple of screenshots. I use msttcorefonts. http://users.tkk.fi/~stas/new_freetype.png http://users.tkk.fi/~stas/old_freetype.png The only difference is that in the second case OO has been started with LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/sarge-libfreetype.so.6.3.5 It seems that I will have to keep this old freetype library at hands for quite some time. These are my local fonconfig settings: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <!-- /etc/fonts/local.conf file to configure font access --> <fontconfig> <!-- Prefered fonts --> <alias> <family>serif</family> <prefer> <family>Times New Roman</family> </prefer> </alias> <alias> <family>sans-serif</family> <prefer> <family>Verdana</family> </prefer> </alias> <alias> <family>monospace</family> <prefer> <family>Courier New</family> </prefer> </alias> <!-- Turn on hinting --> <match target="font"> <edit name="hinting" mode="assign"><bool>true</bool></edit> <edit name="hintstyle" mode="assign"><const>hintfull</const></edit> </match> <!-- Turn off antialiasing for small fonts --> <match target="font"> <test qual="any" name="size" compare="less"> <double>16</double> </test> <edit name="antialias" mode="assign"> <bool>false</bool> </edit> </match> </fontconfig> -- Stanislav -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
