Hi :slight_smile:

Some page in my presentation have a problem:

1) Fonts squeezed and seem ugly.

2) After exporting to PDF fonts will become garbled.

Hi :slight_smile:
Can you try
1. select all the text
2. Format - "Remove direct formating" (top option in that menu)

I'm wondering if there is something odd in the style used by that text. Is
it "body text" or "default"? Whichever it is can you do F11 to bring up
the styles menu and then right-click on the appropriate one and choose
"Modify" (2nd option, i think) then flick through to see if any of the tabs
have anything weird set-up. Maybe the "Font effects" tab?

The best experts about fonts, afaik, are on US time-zones so it'll be a
long while before they are around although i have a feeling there are
others who might be good too. It might be worth re-posting the question to
the international translators. Their address is something like
L10n@Global.LibreOffice.Org

hi nima,

please also mention the OS (windows/linux), version of libreoffice, name of the font used.

there were few mentions about poor font rendering in libreoffice 4.1 few months back in this mailing list. not sure if that was resolved yet.

regards,
