Public bug reported: With default system font settings i.e. full hinting and sub-pixel highlighting, using QT4 apps like Opera, by default, there a large inconsitancies between the font rendering. Largley, they are rendered without hinting and look plain ugly.
"Hinting/antialiasing settings set in user preferences are ignored and are set based upon symlinks located at /etc/fonts/conf.d (i.e. defaulted at medium font hinting, no subpixel hinting)." I've noticed this since Gutsy and is still in effect in Intrepid. Thankfully, the following post describes how to fix it -- by changing some symlinks: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4683737&postcount=7 But this is a bug that should be fixed in future releases. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Inconsistent font rendering between apps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/305118 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
