Hi All,
after setting all the correct values (I hope) in xorg.conf, installing
Windows TrueType fonts and so on, the result is still not good.
For a visual, please see:

The left part is how Linux (OpenOffice) shows the text; right is Windows
(Word). Both use the same font (Times New Roman).
Any hints appreciated.
As I can see, your KDE doesn't use Anti Antiasing. Gnome uses it by
default. Mozilla and Gnome use the Pango system to provide Anti Aliasing.
You can install a non Anti Aliasing Version of Mozilla if you want. Just
do the following:
Just download:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla-i686-pc-lin…
Close your Mozilla.
Remove the Slackware Mozilla package (as root):
removepkg mozilla-1.7-i486-1
Unpack your downloaded tarball:
tar -zxvf mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu-1.7-installer.tar.gz
Run the installation script (as root).
Btw: Here is the official Anti Aliasing Mozilla Slackware uses (Pango
support):
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.7/contrib/…
Anybody known how this is done with OpenOffice?
