Re: Font antialiasing only working for some fonts

2002-05-11 Thread Jarno Elonen
 Solved, for me anyway:

 # cd /usr/lib/openoffice/share/psprint/
 # rm pspfontcache
 # touch pspfontcache
 # chmod 444 pspfontcache

I had to replace the first step with ~/.openoffice/user/psprint before it had 
any effect. Any idea why font cache disables AA?

(And what is it anyway that makes it so difficult with fonts in Linux?-)

 I see some anti-aliased fonts in my applications, including OpenOffice,
 but not all fonts are anti-aliased.
 ...
 This is very frustrating :-(  All of the fonts worked well with the
 OpenOffice.org download of 641d, but they have stopped working now that
 I am using the Debian package.

I have the same problem and actually had AA problems with the non-debianized 
641C, too. Everything was antialiased just fine with 638, though.

Font antialiasing only working for some fonts

2002-05-09 Thread Andrew McMillan
Hi Everyone,

I am having some wierd problems with anti-aliased fonts on my system and
I wonder if anyone here has any ideas.

I see some anti-aliased fonts in my applications, including OpenOffice,
but not all fonts are anti-aliased.

I have installed msttcorefonts, but they do not apear anti-aliased in
OpenOffice although they _do_ appear anti-aliased in other applications.

Mozilla, for example, will anti-alias Times New Roman, as will
Evolution.  OpenOffice will not.  OpenOffice will anti-alias some fonts
however, from a bunch of other truetype fonts I have installed (just not
the msttcorefonts).

Any ideas?

I have set all the font paths I use into my /etc/X11/XftConfig, and I
have tried using both xfs and xfs-xtt as font servers.  I have also
tried LD_PRELOAD-ing the freetype6 libraries.

This is very frustrating :-(  All of the fonts worked well with the
OpenOffice.org download of 641d, but they have stopped working now that
I am using the Debian package.

Thanks,
Andrew.
