Sorry, I do not know how everything is connected here. Does "upstream
StarOffice 8" automatically mean it is going to be included into OOo at some
point? Or are there even any public developer builds that already have this
very cool feature? I am really hungry to get it!
Thanks so much.
To get an idea how upstream version does look like in the current state,
I've attached a screenshot showing staroffice-writer using system-
libfreetype in gutsy. If you compare this to gutsy ooo, you have to
agree that openoffice.org-scribblers team has done a lot of work to
include patches that ar
In short: I don't think so, at least not until you are providing the
required patches :-). The same applies to distribution-specific patches,
I don't think the ubuntu openoffice-scribblers-team has enough resources
to fix it on their own. For Gutsy there is rather no chance at all, sad
but true.

Gert,
as I see from your statement that it's up to OO.o programmers to respect
subpixel antialiasing, and provided that Gutsy features now a real nice

upstream (in a polite way, of course)?

I notice the same problem with Kubuntu 7.04 (using
libfreetype6/libcairo2/libxft2 packages) and OpenOffice 2.2: the fonts in
almost all applications look perfect to me. However, in OOo, the font smoothing
is of substantially lower quality. I can confirm that there is some font
smoothing in OOo
No, it does not. In Ubuntu ooo is using system-libfreetype (upstream is
able to do so, too, but at least it had troubles with freetype >=2.2).
It is rather related to the fact that upstream-ooo is ignoring
fontconfig-rendering-settings, e.g. if your system-libfreetype has
enabled bytecode-interpre
