----------------------------------
Summary: IDE fonts is unreadable on Linux
Key: NETBEANS-5687
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5687
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Components: cnd - Editor
Affects Versions: 12.2
Environment: Sparky Linux rolling KDE edition.
Linux 5.10.0-6-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.28-1 (2021-04-09) x86_64 GNU/Linux
The system Java (OpenJDK11) render completely unreadable font. This is the best
looking font JDK I trial and error from AdoptOpenJDK:
java --version
openjdk 11.0.11 2021-04-20
OpenJDK Runtime Environment AdoptOpenJDK-11.0.11+9 (build 11.0.11+9)
Eclipse OpenJ9 VM AdoptOpenJDK-11.0.11+9 (build openj9-0.26.0, JRE 11 Linux
amd64-64-Bit Compressed References 20210421_975 (JIT enabled, AOT enabled)
OpenJ9 - b4cc246d9
OMR - 162e6f729
JCL - 7796c80419 based on jdk-11.0.11+9)
System Settings of KDE set Anti Aliasing to true and Hinting style is Slight.
All of the application looks good, only NetBeans is so bad.

Fix For: 12.3

This is my first issue so please forgive if it's too amateur. Java Swing
applications tend to have very bad font rendering on Linux but I found with
previous versions of NetBeans if I changed the editor font to Liberation Mono
and increase the size to 16 the code will look good again even though the UI
font still bad. This trick no longer worked. The font after changed to
Liberation Mono definitely looks better but still bad.
