[Anixx <271283@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just tried to reproduce the problem on my machine under KDE3. It seems
that without dpi set in Xresources LibreOffice uses a font larger than
that used systemwide for the interface. I have KDE3, KDE4, Qt4, GTK2
applications all using the same font size and only LibreOffice using a
font slightly larger.

This can be mitigated only by setting the DPI in Xresources.

As to subpixel hinting I have set it up in /etc/fonts/local.conf

  OpenOffice font rendering looks ugly because of the latest cairo patches. There is workaround and patches to improve font rendering to the previous state, but it doesn't work for the OpenOffice.
