I am not sure if this might help, but it does improve the way fonts are
rendered for me in KDE and Gnome.
Basically it turns on hinting.
Put this in a file called .fonts.conf in your home directory.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<match target="font">
<edit name="autohint" mode="assign">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
