> The discussion in that bug kind of petered out, unfortunately. It did, and indeed. I thought a fix had been implemented for KFontRequester, but either I'm mistaken, or I have a fix locally. > I think you're the only one who understands what's going on there, so would you care to have another go at fixing it? I seem to recall that some people (the Plasma guys?) thought that the stylename should be specified. At least my fix to plasma-integration (D9070 <https://phabricator.kde.org/D9070>) didn't remove the stylenames from the DefaultFontData table. That's how I realised what was happening here: I forced a default font config by removing all the font configs from my kdeglobals, and thus got the fonts from that table - styleNames included.

I'm close (hopefully) to having a working alternative based on letterspacing. That property is not affected by stylenames and shouldn't be affected by FontConfig settings either (space between letters is more a text rendering than a font property).
