test document
Hello,
I am attaching screenshots of a document opened in LibreOffice 5.0.1 compared
to the same document opened in 4.4.5 on the same Manjaro (derived from Arch)
Linux system. The document uses the Ubuntu font family, and the subpixel
hinting looks very good on 4.4.5 but doesn't appear to work at all in 5.0.1 at
lower zoom levels. Then at 120% zoom, it still looks excellent and uniformly
rendered on 4.4.5, but on 5.0.1 it starts to show hinting on some of the larger
font sizes but not on smaller fonts, resulting in an ugly mixed-bag display.
This same semi-hinted rendering is visible at several different zoom levels as
you slide up and down.
I already played around with the Options -> View -> antialiasing settings, but
it makes no difference. I also tried installing the -ubuntu font rendering
packages into Arch (sorry no screenshots) but it still resulted in mixed
rendering similar to my 120% zoom screenshot.
Thanks for looking into this.
