Last week I upgraded Pages to version 10.0 and now the fonts look really, really bad.

Back when I upgraded to Mojave all the fonts looked really thin since I'm on a 1440p monitor. So as recommended by the online community I ran the command "defaults write -g CGFontRenderingFontSmoothingDisabled -bool NO". Since then everything was quite okayish font-wise and I haven't upgraded to Catalina yet because I'm afraid it will get worse again.

However with the new pages update the fonts in pages look like this: Strangely, when I disable the foont-smoothing option in system preferences>general (https://cdn.osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/use-font-smoothing-macos-mojave-610x605.jpg), it looks a lot better, but then everything else – like fonts in Chrome – is way too thin again!

Has anyone a good workaround?
