@blackskad: Thanks that did it, in a much more satisfactory way than removing other packages...
To re-iterate, it seems Oracle have dropped the Ubuntu font configuration from their latest Java 7 packages (for Ubuntu at least). The minimal change is, (assuming you have java-6-sun installed): sudo cp /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/fontconfig.Ubuntu.* /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/lib/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/937200 Title: Fat fonts in Swing applications To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fonts-unfonts-core/+bug/937200/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
