Hi everyone!

Since ever, as a KDE user, I was distracted by the obvious quality
mismatch between fonts for thunderbird and firefox in gnome and KDE.
That is, in Gnome, thunderbird and firefox's usage of fonts seems to be
near perfect. In KDE the fonts of these apps look completely alien. As
far as I understand from searching google, it has something to do with
gtk, Qt and KDE. I tried various things that various blogs/how to
suggest but I can't get a result resembling gnome. How can I achieve
good font antialiasing in iceweasel/icedove, and how can I config these
apps to use the fonts that I select from System Settings -> Look and
Feel -> Appearance -> Fonts ?

Thanks...

Hi, I "solved" the problem by installing "gtk-qt-engine-kde4" from Sid,
and in KDE4 "systemsettings" "appearance" > "GTK style and fonts"
(translations approx., my system is not in English) you will be able to
choose to "use my kde themes and fonts in GTK apps" or not, and
customize fonts used by GTK apps. It looks OK here using Bitstream-vera
system-wide).

Hope it can work for you too.

I use testing and I found: gtk-qt-engine. This is obviously another thing, no? Because this packet also has 'use my KDE themes ... ' etc... I tried this with no luck. I will try gtk-qt-engine-kde4.
