Is this possible? I've been staying with the KDE-integrated OpenOffice.org 1.1.3 for 9 months because its GUI looks way better. I installed 2.0 only to discover the horrible looking freetype without bytecode interpreter.
I read somewhere about a LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/libfreetype.so" oofice, but that doesn't seem to work.
I guess I'll go back to my terribly outdated KDE-integrated OpenOffice.org 1.1.3 if there's no fix for this problem.

OpenOffice.org 2.0 uses the KDE theme that you are running and the fonts look great to me (I installed ms truetype fonts). I am using OO2 on Mandriva 2006 and Suse 10.

Maybe this will help:

OO2 on Debian unstable with MS truetype fonts and those you can grab as a bundle (6500 + true type fonts !) on gnome-look.org
look all great on OO2.This is a significant improvement of the office suite !

I do have MS truetype fonts, and I do have byte-code interpreter enabled.
My problem is that OpenOffice 2.0 doesn't seem to want to use my byte-code interpreter, so I get fat blurry fonts instead of subpixel hinted fonts.
I know that OpenOffice uses it's own version of freetype, without byte-code interpreter, I'm just wondering if there are any hacks or some way of making it use my own freetype that has the byte-code interpreter enabled.
BTW I'm on Slackware, so I'm using the official binaries, not sure if you guys are using your distros' own compile or not.

On Suse I am using Suse packages, but on Mandriva I am using OO official packages.

I have exact same problem with Debian, testing, KDE. Have you found a way to make OOo look nice with no antialiasing?

still nothing?

Same problem...

I dont know how/why, but this has solved my problem:

LD_PRELOAD="/usr/local/src/freetype-2.1.10/objs/.libs/libfreetype.so" soffice
