Matthias Bläsing resolved NETBEANS-5687.
----------------------------------------
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 12.3)
       Resolution: Cannot Reproduce

Tested on Ubuntu with system JDK (OpenJDK 11)  - font rendering looks ok, 
switching to different font works. Maybe other fontconfig settings are broken.

> IDE fonts is unreadable on Linux

>          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:

> OpenJDK Runtime Environment AdoptOpenJDK-11.0.11+9 (build 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.

> 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.
