Hi Patrick, I attach the snapshot of how the font looks in scribus compared to openoffice. Of course, font rendering doesn't depend on an application on my system - openoffice is used only by chance.
The only exception is scribus - fonts look horrible on the page but they look perfect on font face selection menus. Have a clue what is the cause of that?
