Does anyone know why Fonts and most Graphics in KDE and Gnome are rendered rather badly. There are some text editors in KDE where the font is just horrible as far as legible.
Any links or knowledge on this topic would be grealy appreciated.

Hi everyone.
I made a program which renders a 3D scene into a pbuffer/pixmap (if pbuffer aren't supported) in order to export it to a postscript file.
On a RHEL4 (32/64 bits) or whatever distribution may be, it works just fine.

fc-cache
FC-CACHE(1)FC-CACHE(1)NAME
fc-cache - build font information cache files
SYNOPSIS
fc-cache [ -fsvV? ] [ --force ] [ --system-only ] [ --verbose ] [ --version ] [ --help ] [ dirs ]
DESCRIPTION
fc-cache scans the font directories on the system and builds font information cache files for applications using fontconfig for their font
handling.
If directory arguments are not given, fc-cache uses each directory in the current font configuration. Each directory is scanned for font
files readable by FreeType. A cache is created which contains properties of each font and the associated filename. This cache is used to
speed up application startup when using the fontconfig library.
Note that fc-cache must be executed once per architecture to generate font information customized for that architecture. On a subsequent
run, fc-cache will augment the cache information files with the information for the new architecture.
OPTIONS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included
below.
-f --force
Force re-generation of apparently up-to-date cache files, overriding the timestamp checking.
-s --system-only
Only scan system-wide directories, omitting the places located in the user's home directory.
-v --verbose
Display status information while busy.
-? --help
Show summary of options.
-V --version
Show version of the program and exit.
dirs A list of directories to scan for fonts.
FILES
fonts.cache-2
These files are generated by fc-cache and contain maps from file names to font properties. They are read by the fontconfig library
at application startup to locate appropriate fonts.
