I am also having this problem too. THis problem (for me) affects the 
whole of KDE. Most of the standard fonts can now be rendered correct (I 
think it is due to install the nvidia drivers for my card, or updateding 
to kde 2.1beta), it is fonts like symbol and other such fonts that end 
up just looking like the kde standard font. This same fonts are fine in 
non kde apps, i.e abiword. As I am doing math, physics and chemistry for 
alevels, not been able to use such fonts in KDE is a major reason for 
not using koffice. Along with not been able to insert symbols in to 
formulas.

Another thing is that when printing all of the fonts look exactly the same.

My Setup
AMD K6-2 350Mhz
160Mb Ram
Gigabyte GA-5AX motherboard
Creative Lab's Nvidia Gefore2 GTS (using the nvidia 0.9-6 drivers)
Mandrake 7.2
Kde 2.1beta (updated using mandrakes rpms)
Qt 2.2.3 (updated using mandrakes rpms)
Cups 1.1.6 (updated using mandrakes rpms)
