Hi, Yep i initially complained as well! But i never had problems with Redhat 9 nor any major problems with Fedora Core 1. i thought it maybe had something with XFT2 and antialiasing or something along those lines ? Will try to install fonts and se if it makes any difference ! Regards Lasse Quoting GarUlbricht7@netscape.net:

I did not try out mozilla and opera before now ! And i have exactly the same problem as with Openoffice as well !
Somebody must have figured this one out ? Any pointers ?

Hi,
fonts are one of the first things people changing from M$ to linux complain about. And one of the reasons is Microsoft has restrictions are their fonts so SuSE can't put them on their CD's.
There is a solution, the fonts are available,
What i did was go into into YaST2 --> "Install and Remove Software" and searched on "fonts". I installed all the font rpms I could find, and in the process I installed a rpm which went out and found the old Microsoft fonts and installed them.
Unfortunately, I can't find the name of that rpm, but it is there.
