I think this was discussed on the list a couple of months ago.

I have the same problem. The characters are squished together on the display,
but they look fine when printed (see attached screenshots). So don't alter
the spacing until you see how the printed page or PDF looks. I was hoping that
upgrading to Qt 3.2 would solve this problem, but it hasn't.

I think someone said that this is an XFree issue. Any ideas for making
the display more closely resemble the printout?
