Using the truetype hinting instructions from the font itself will make it much more crisp. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Fedora-fonts-bugs-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-bugs-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-bugs-list

Thus clearly the problem is not the system freetype or cairo libs, the problem lies in the way firefox uses them. Investigation will probably show that: 1. firefox fails to pass a crucial rendering parameter to one of the system libs, or 2. that since firefox insists on duplicating a private font configuration system in prefs.js (instead of using the desktop settings broadcasted via XSettings), it's missing one parameter which had been set desktop-side and not duplicated by the user manually in prefs.js. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Fedora-fonts-bugs-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-bugs-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-bugs-list

I've attached a screenshot. I've also attached screenshots demonstrating the problem in GEDIT and OOWRITER. I noticed that I was able to reproduce the problem there as well. The font on the screen is liberation sans but the same thing happens with other fonts such as Arial taken directly from MS Windows.
