Summary: hinting turned off even for large fonts https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=708525 Summary: hinting turned off even for large fonts Product: Fedora Version: 15 Platform: Unspecified OS/Version: Unspecified Status: NEW Severity: unspecified Priority: unspecified Component: pango AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [email protected] QAContact: [email protected] CC: [email protected], [email protected] Classification: Fedora Story Points: --- Created attachment 501397 --> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=501397 Screen shot of office writer document with different size fonts in same families. Description of problem: On my fedora 15 system, the fonts all render terribly by default, being completely thin and spindly. After much investigation, I find various settings down in the /etc/fonts config files to do things like turn off hinting for fonts smaller than 7.5 (what units 7.5 are in, I'm not sure), but in fact hinting seems to be turned off for fonts up to point size 13 as the attached screenshot of a libreoffice document seems to show. So many pieces are involved in font rendering, I don't know for sure if pango is the right component for this, but it is my best guess. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pango-1.28.4-1.fc15.x86_64 cairo-1.10.2-3.fc15.x86_64 fontconfig-2.8.0-3.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.See screenshot of office writer image 2. 3. Actual results: All fonts 13 points and under rendered incredibly spindly. Expected results: Better font rendering.
