Hi.
I have problems with fonts in LM 8.0. It looks horrible.
You can see the example I put at http://www.ua.es/personal/oscar/fuentes/
I'm following discussion about this problem at www.mandrakeforum.com and
www.mandrakeuser.org
This is my solution, but It's not complete, It's only "first aids":

It has been a while since I asked about this but I wanted to pass this along
in case it helps or enlightens anyone.
I finally got the font (flubber) to work. It is a hack, and I still don't
understand why some of the fonts won't work the way Mandrake
No luck first time, here it is again...

Just install the DrakFont RPM from the 7.1 distro. :-)
Otherwise, you have to copy TTF files (ensuring the extension is
lowercase), then run ttmkfdir, etc, as described in several different
tutorials written much more clearly than I write. I've grabbed the
DrakFont RPM and am using it on a 7.0-

Adds a little GUI that gets your windows TT fonts and make them

How are fonts and printing supposed to work under KDE2.
I have a brand new unmodified 7.2 distribution with a local printer
(BJC610) and a remote printer (Laserjet4 equivalent on a WinME box)
setup by the install and working normally.
When I try Kword, fonts appear normal on screen (several di

Is there any way to get gtk-based apps to use nice antialiased font rendering
in Mandrake 8.2? Is this an available option in Mandrake 9.0?
It would be real nice if I could get fonts in mozilla and gtk/gnome apps to
render fonts as nicely as KDE

I just upgraded my laptop system to Mandrake 8.0 from 7.2. All was well
until I used drakfont to install all the windoze fonts. Since doing that,
all my kde fonts are italic.
I try to alter this from the fonts entry in kcontrol but these entries all
still show the "correct" helvetica font,
Thank you very much Oscar.
However I tried another thing based on what you suggested. I used

worked pretty good (Konqueror and Staroffice), in other, konqueror got
really nice but StarOffice not so much, even though

After having installed some packages from TexStar, I do not see anymore

Also I noticed that I started to see strange characters in some web page

that you have set

This seems like a stupid hack, but it did work.

Konqueror will use the fonts specified in the web page or its associated style
sheet (CSS). You will need to find a solution that overrides this. Maybe you
could set up your own style sheet, or possible use the accessability stylesheet,
which allows you to set base font sizes, etc. Look in kcontro
Thanks for the info ill try to find a solution with the stylesheets.

Ok, it's my experience, but I had problems with fonts until in
/etc/X11/fs/config I changed the line:
/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1,
to this:
/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1:unscaled,
(And I don't have installed abisuite).
My fonts are now clean.

OK i found a way to fix it actually i uninstalled abisuite but it might be
enough to comment out the line leading to abiword fonts from
/etc/X11/fs/config
# /usr/share/abisuite/AbiSuite/fonts,
just put a # in front of it i dont know if abisuite will work without those
fonts but its worth

Thanks Óscar. Following the suggestions of others, I had already set a couple
of other font types to unscaled - without much luck. This one seems to have
done the trick!
