aaa, great point, thanks for this! :)
after latest fully cooker update antialiasing broken here, and i don't
know where was problem. i know, that there is Xft2 and fontconfig
package, but it is still undocummented. after adding my true type and
Type1 paths into fonts.conf it works perfectly!

this is unnecessary. just run fc-cache after editing fonts.conf and fonts
are available to all libs which used new xft2
