I do not know what's going on under the hood but here's what works for me. Credit goes to http://gordonazmo.wordpress.com/2008/03/27/a-simple-tweak-to-make-your-gtk-fonts-look-nice-in-kde/ I already had gtk-qt-engine-1.1-5.fc11.i586. I cannot test GNOME right now but at least for GTK apps under KDE that solution works for me. So a missing link is resotered by #ln -s /etc/fonts/conf.avail/10-autohint.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d/ I do not know which rpm should be responsible for providing this symbolic link therefore I will leave the subject and category as it is although my initial guess is totally wrong. Hasan Thanks, Hasan. FYI, 10-autohint.conf was not symlinked to conf.d/ has many reasons. '10' is very high priority which overrides most of other specification in other .conf files. Ones might prefer Auto Hint for everything, but there are other ones who don't. There are some users who are in locales that auto hinting blur their default fonts due to glyph complexity. This simply affect their usage. We could work out a more appropriate solutions to suit both cases. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Zap this bug. Please reopen if bug persists after testing on latest version. |
