It's much less subtle than that (see attachment: without on the left, with on the right). Interestingly, I checked my anti-aliasing settings in KDE, which were set to "Vendor Default". When I changed anti-aliasing to "Enabled", hinting style "Medium", then *removed* the -J-D, I got nice-looking fonts in NetBeans. Seems counter-intuitive, but hey. -- Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) "After the vintage season came the aftermath -- and Cenbe."
