Feature changed by: Melvin Jose (melvinjose) Feature #312694, revision 7 Title: Font Rendering esp. KDE openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Melvin Jose (melvinjose) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Improve the font rendering on opensuse especially on KDE. Bring it upto the standards of ubuntu at least. Discussion: #1: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) (2011-08-06 21:30:08) Too vaguely formulated. What exactly is bad? (And I think the directional vector has a sign error in your request.) + #4: Melvin Jose (melvinjose) (2011-08-10 04:38:02) (reply to #1) + I just wanted to keep it short. Infact the font rendering with all the + fonts provided in opensuse 11.3 used to be very distorted on the KDE + environment (found GNOME's better). I resolved it by copying the font + 'ubuntu' from an ubuntu 10.10 system (fonts look beautiful enough on + them) and also installing subpixel hinting enabled freetype2 packages. + Now it looks very decent. Why can't we have that by default as the + associated patents have expired. #2: Joseph Mitzen (duncreg) (2011-08-06 21:35:31) What exactly is wrong with openSUSE KDE font rendering? #3: Diogo Piçarra (xpetept) (2011-08-08 04:24:05) I think he means that should be used a better default font. If that's what he means i agree with that. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312694
