Sometimes it helps to set the hinting style to "full" by putting the following into your ~/.fonts.conf: <?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <fontconfig> <match target="font" > <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" > <const>hintfull</const> </edit> </match> </fontconfig> see also: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=367593 -- Regards, Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
