Description FabiB 2016-06-24 22:24:47 UTC

since the KDE Plasma 5.5 Release, "Noto" is the default font for Plasma, wich is great! Because of this our linux desktop now looks awesome ... well... sometimes

because of distributions font settings on some installations plasma fonts are looking blurrish or to sharp, sometimes fat. best examples are:
compare Arch to Kubuntu to OpenSuse. All of them mostly vanilla but the font renderings are not the same.


So in short: we need a font config file to make plasmas fonts looking good and the same for all distros.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install Arch/Manjaro
2. install Kubuntu
3. instal magaia

Actual Results:  
on every setup the fonts have a slightly different (and not the "good") look

Expected Results:  
plasmas font rendering should be the same on all linuxes

What's different between those font configs?
