Hello,

Hoping this is the right forum, I wanted to ask if anyone could help me 
get anti-aliasing to work with Graphite fonts (Linux Biolinum G and 
Linux Libertine G) on LibreOffice. Without anti-aliasing it looks pretty 
terrible on-screen, but still very nice when exported or printed. The 
OpenType versions of the same fonts work fine (though without the 
Graphite good stuff) as do the Graphite fonts in other applications that 
I have tried.

My system is Debian unstable, LibreOffice 3.4.3 but the problem appears 
on my other Debian boxes running Debian stable and OpenOffice 3.2.1.

You can easily see if on screen antialiasing is working:
Tools|Options|LibreOffice|View|uncheck 'Screen font antialiasing' and
click OK. You should notice a considerable difference.

That said, I find the fonts Linux Biolinum G and
Linux Libertine G ttf fonts provided as defaults in LO do have rendering
problems (particularly when viewed at standard 12 pt). They also seem to
have odd version numbers with compared with the fonts from:
http://www.linuxlibertine.org/
  http://www.linuxlibertine.org/index.php?id=91&L=1

<http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxlibertine/files/linuxlibertine/5.1.3-2/>
or
http://www.numbertext.org/linux/
...

If I get time later, I'll rip out the LO versions in
/opt/libreoffice3.4/basis3.4/share/fonts and replace with the other TTF
versions to see if the issue is just the TTF conversion, or the LO version.

Did that & doesn't seem to make much difference. OTF font renders
considerably cleaner.
