Menu fonts

Post by Office user »

I've installed the rpm version of 3.4.1 and the only problem I have is increasing the size of menu fonts.

I've gone through options and ticked for "use system fonts" but this hasn't worked.

My OS is PCLinux 2012 / KDE4

Try changing the Scaling Factor setting on that options page.

I've tried that, set it to the maximum of 130%.

Sadly. it hasn't worked.

It worked for me on Ubuntu 12.04.

Are there any specific packages that you had to install to support Open Office?

No, I do an "out of the box" install on all my machines.

Undo the Use System Fonts and see if the scaling option improve your interface.

Sadly, that hasn't fixed it either so I'm wondering what has a grip on the menu font in Open Office when running under Linux?
