See if the following glyphs come out as any numbers (they are unicodes U+F000 and U+F001 repectively) when using DejaVu Sans:  If you get something like 88 for both, then chances are, autohinting is enabled. I too have explicitly disabled it in my .fonts.conf, yet it appears as 88 in gucharmap

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance. ** Changed in: freet

I didn't have any problem disabling and enabling autohinting in debian or ubuntu since I started using it. I just do dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config When you select native hinting, it doesn't create any symlink When you select autohinting, it creates a symlink in /etc/fonts/conf.d/ to a file w

Okay, apparently I didn't hear the whole story. Now I've talked with him more, I hope I get it right this time. There has been a bug in xft since the beginning about reading autohint setting of fontconfig properly, it existed in both 2.1.8.2 and 2.1.10. The symptom of the bug is that it can only

I discussed this with a user, and he says this is more likely due to the new libxft2 (2.1.10) ignoring the autohint setting by fontconfig. If that's the case, using the ftstring tool in freetype2-demos should show same results on two systems, as (I assume) ftstring talks with libfreetype6 directly
