3. Font rendering for Japanese I think outline fonts are better than embedded bitmaps. I added some lines to /etc/fonts/fonts.conf. See fonts.conf.diff please.

The embedded bitmaps are enabled on purpose. See the following part of /etc/fonts/suse-pre-user.conf:

[...] for another reason to stay with enabling the embedded bitmaps see http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=105626 Wavy rendering with freetype2.1.10 and IPA fonts Until we updated to freetype 2.1.10 we used a patch from http://www.kde.gr.jp/~akito/patch/freetype2/ to improve the rendering for CJK fonts. I hope this patch can be adapted for freetype 2.1.10, but unfortunately it appears to be not so easy and I doubt that this problem can be fixed until the release of SuSE Linux 10.0. Because that patch is missing now, the rendering quality of the outlines of CJK fonts in small sizes became much worse than in SuSE Linux 9.3. Embedded bitmaps help to reduce the impact of this problem. -- Mike FABIAN http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。
