Public bug reported: OpenOffice 2.2 became available on feisty repos, and along with it, a serious font rendering issue that was present in 2.0 and corrected in 2.1.
The fonts look very bad, specially without antialiasing. To reproduce the problem just start OpenOffice writer and disable antialiased fonts. Here's a screenshot of the problem http://img82.imageshack.us/img82/9799/screenshotdl3.png Right you can see the BAD font rendering that plagued OOo 2.0 in Ubuntu, and now seems to be present again in 2.2. Left is OOo 2.1, that renders fonts correctly, as you can see. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- openoffice 2.2 has a serious problem with font rendering in Ubuntu 7.04 https://launchpad.net/bugs/92693 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
