Windows Vista is a new operating system that was released in October of 2009. It is a major update to the Windows operating system and includes many new features and improvements. One of the new features of Windows Vista is the addition of fonts. Fonts are files that contain the text that appears on your computer screen. They can be used to create text documents, create logos, or even just look good on your computer screen. One of the problems that can occur when using fonts is that they can look terrible on your computer screen. This is because Windows Vista uses a different font rendering engine than previous versions of Windows. This means that some fonts may not display properly on your computer because they are not able to be rendered in a way that looks good on your screen. In addition, some fonts may not be compatible with certain devices or browsers. If you have any problems with your windows Vista fonts looking terrible, you can try changing them to a different font or using an online font converter service like Google Fonts or Typekit.

And here’s what they should look like with ClearType enabled:
To make sure that ClearType is enabled, you’ll need to open the classic Appearance Settings dialog. Right click on the desktop and choose Personalize. Then click on Window Color and Appearance:
If you have Aero enabled, you’ll have to click on “Open classic appearance properties for more color options”.
Click on the “Effects…” button and make sure that your computer has the checkbox for font smoothing enabled.
