Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 1238
Ugly fonts on small screen
Last modified: 2003-12-06 14:52:34 UTC
I have made a presentation on an old computer (Mandrake 7.2) with a large screen and moved the presentation to a new computer (Mandrake 8.0) with a small screen. The fonts have become ugly. It seems as if they will not scale in any size. They do, however, seem to have the spacing right.

Hello Ole, in your test document I have seen that the title of your presentation is formatted in font frutiger and the text is in font times. Are both fonts installed on your new computer with the small monitor? Thanks in advance for information. Regards, Wolfram
All text should be in Frutiger - atleast it appears so on old computer. http://ole.tange.dk/foredrag/swpat-it now contains export to HTML. It really seems the Frutiger is the only font used. But when I search for fonts it seems that Frutiger is installed on neither computer?! xlsfonts |grep -i fru How do I find out where old computer got Frutiger from? Can I tell OO to save the font in the presentation, so I wont have to worry when using somebody else's computer for presenting?
Oops. This was due to font server running on wrong port. When changing the port of xfs fonts showed up much better (not beatiful, but acceptable). (What is really wierd is that neither GIMP nor KDE was affected by this - how on earth they managed to find the wrong port of xfs is beyond me).
Closed.
