I haven't had any real font issues since I started turning
on autohinting unconditionally by adding this file:

cat <<'EOF' > "/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-autohint.conf"
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<!--  Use the Autohinter --> 
  <match target="font">
    <edit name="autohint" mode="assign"><bool>true</bool></edit>
  </match>
</fontconfig>
EOF

There is a autohint file shipped with fedora, but it doesn't
have the key piece: mode="assign"

Of course, they also tend to change the default font and all
the themes in every release because God forbid anyone should
get used to the way things look.

Depending on what you are using as a monitor, this can also
affect the way things look now in f20:
