The differences look to be aliasing handling by the two systems, and is
probably caused by a difference in the freetype delegate library. This
is the software that actually does the rendering of a font into a
raster image. I doubt their is very much that can be done on the IM side.
I suggest you look at the versions of the freetype library package
installed, and many see about updating.
Fedora 9 is very very much more advanced (bleeding edge) than Centos
which is designed to use older, and stable packages than the latest
version.
For my own information which image was from which system?
