Under KDE i use the Liquid theme, and under Gnome ive set a similar theme.
When i start a gnome app in KDE it shows up with the look&feel i defined under gnome, which is just how i want it. But fonts in gnome apps look horrible in KDE. For example Anjuta(C++ IDE) fonts looks great under Gnome, but launched under KDE it looks ugly(even when displaying exactly the same fonts that is used in the app "next window").
If i run KDevelop under Gnome it looks great, no problems with fonts. Can this be changed, or should i run KDE apps under Gnome??(after all thats where both type of apps look nice).
Perhaps gnome apps fontaliasing is disabled under KDE?? Is there someway to enable it?

No ideas?
Is it the same for others or is the problem just with me??

Btw, ive noticed that programs like OpenOffice/Mozilla/Opera(which dont use Gnome or KDE GUI apparently) also have horrible font rendering, is any way to rectify this?

Would importing fonts from windows help anything on this?

hey, did you ever resolve this problem? My Gnome apps look terrible fontwise under KDE...So annoying, can't figure it out!
