Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libfreetype6
This bug exists in Feisty and Gutsy, I've checked both of them, but probably this bug emerged when OOo started to use freetype 2. After enabling sub-pixel anti-aliasing in System->Preferences->Appearance->Fonts all applications that use shared libfreetype6 have anti-aliased fonts. But in OOo this doesn't work due to the fact, that it has it's own, statically linked, libfreetype6 with those features disabled. http://www.openoffice.org/FAQs/fontguide.html#4 I assume that if OOo would be built with the byte hinting option enabled, then this would solve this issue. ** Affects: freetype (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: openoffice.org (Baltix) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: openoffice.org (Baltix) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- No subpixel antialiasing in OOo https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/138493 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
