GDI++ help me :)

Ok, so following Raats' XP-Leopard transofmation thingy (mainly for the FF skin), it prompted me to install lucidia grande and grande bold.

I already have grande, but not bold, so I dragged both into /fonts, thinking 'Meh, what difference could it make'.

I then noticed that everything was wrong. :D

GDI++ was the culprit, it's rendering the font (especially spacing) wrong, and seeing as there are people who know an assload more about gdi++ than me... help?

(One free cookie to the person who solves my problem :))

Maybe they're the pre-smoothened versions of the fonts. Just use a normal version of the two fonts, available by search here or in the osx-e downloads section.

Ah, ok, I'll try that.

Have half a cookie, you'll get the rest if it works.

If that doesn't work, just exclude the font or use a better font. Like Cidre.

Problem fixed itself, you can all go home, now.

Have a cookie for your troubles, though.
