--- Comment #8 from Tobias Schula tobias.schula@gmail.com 2009-01-10 08:43:07 --- (From update of attachment 18617) It's nice to see wine finally got font smoothing, but there are still some drawbacks. In this example you can see the setting of the .fonts.conf in the users home directory doesn't have any impact on the font rendering in wine.
The settings made in KDE were slight hinting and no subpixelrendering. For some reason wine ignores those settings and still renders the text without hinting but subpixelrendering.
