[Bug 67226] Re: [karmic] Firefox 3.5 and openoffice do not stick to antialiasing render settings

[Michael Nagel]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: firefox
  
  The font in firefox is too blurry, maybe hinting is enabled.
  The gnome interface font is ok, only firefox and openoffice suffers from this problem.
  
  I already try to disable hinting on about:config in firefox, but this
  was disabled by default.
  
- Thanks.
+ ---------- -----------
+ There is a workaround mentioned in comment 109:
+ 
+ sudo rm /etc/fonts/conf.d/10*
+ sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig
+ ---------- -----------
  
  ==================
  My /.fonts.conf looked like this:
  
  <?xml version='1.0'?>
  <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
  <fontconfig>
-     <match target="font" >
-         <edit mode="assign" name="rgba" >
-             <const>none</const>
-         </edit>
-     </match>
-     <match target="font" >
-         <edit mode="assign" name="hinting" >
-             <bool>true</bool>
-         </edit>
-     </match>
-     <match target="font" >
-         <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
-             <const>hintfull</const>
-         </edit>
-     </match>
-     <match target="font" >
-         <edit mode="assign" name="antialias" >
-             <bool>true</bool>
-         </edit>
-     </match>
-     <dir>/home/jack/.fontmatrix</dir>
+     <match target="font" >
+         <edit mode="assign" name="rgba" >
+             <const>none</const>
+         </edit>
+     </match>
+     <match target="font" >
+         <edit mode="assign" name="hinting" >
+             <bool>true</bool>
+         </edit>
+     </match>
+     <match target="font" >
+         <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
+             <const>hintfull</const>
+         </edit>
+     </match>
+     <match target="font" >
+         <edit mode="assign" name="antialias" >
+             <bool>true</bool>
+         </edit>
+     </match>
+     <dir>/home/jack/.fontmatrix</dir>
  </fontconfig>
  
  After deleting:
  
-     <match target="font" >
-         <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
-             <const>hintfull</const>
-         </edit>
-     </match>
+     <match target="font" >
+         <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
+             <const>hintfull</const>
+         </edit>
+     </match>
  
  everything seems to be fixed.
