well, i was hoping that this problem of bad font rendering inside OOo would be fixed with feisty (which has OOo2.1), i've just upgraded and... it's much much worse than in edgy! i attach a screenshot. Look at the "r" in the screenshot. all of them have some sort of gray vertical bar on the right. I've actually first read "Autoconnect" instead of "Autocorrect"... it really looks bad. i tried renaming my ~/.openoffice and ~/.openoffice.org2 and it didn't help. i have set up GNOME to use best contrast/greyscale smoothing/full hinting/RGB pixel order.
this is openoffice 2.1-4ubuntu1 from the feisty repos. ** Attachment added: "screenshot of OOo2.1 menus in feisty" http://librarian.launchpad.net/6610628/Screenshot.png -- [Edgy] font hinting does not work with libfreetype6 v. 2.2.1 https://launchpad.net/bugs/54776 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
