https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=489833 --- Comment #2 from Nicolas Mailhot <[email protected]> 2009-03-12 07:52:10 EDT --- 1. OO.o behaves differently since it uses a different text stack. This is being fixed upstream, you can ask OO.o devs to accelerate the move to pango/cairo if you like 2. GNOME font sizes are different: this is a result of GNOME allowing the overloading of DPI value in gconf instead of using the Xorg DPI value as everything else. Complain GNOME-side. DE people need to be hit with a huge cluestick and leave DPI to X (and modify this value at the X level if needed not in private overlays others apps do not see) 3. Cleartype. Not going to happen for legal reasons. Additionnaly it only performs good on very specific hardware, and very specific fonts (MS fonts which have bugs cleartype hides; we're not going to optimise our display for fonts we do not ship to the detriment of fonts we do ship). For every comment you'll find on the net praising those patches you'll find three stating they suck and make things worse.
