I don't know about javaws, but for regular stand-alone Java
applications I had to use the following to get fonts that were
anywhere close to readable.
export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on'
I added it to the shell-script running the program itself. You
may need to put this in your .${SHELL}rc file (.kshrc, .zshrc,
.bashrc, etc.) instead if this is running inside of your browser.
If it doesn't work, hopefully it will at least give you a good
starting point to try other things.
