Font ghosting in window managers...

There is a problem with font rendering in Arch linux, there is a ghosting effect at the back of fonts,
especially in LXAppearance, and recently noticed in PCManFM as well...

Output for "xrdb -query":
Xft.antialias:    1
Xft.autohint:    0
Xft.dpi:    96
Xft.hinting:    1
Xft.hintstyle:    hintslight
Xft.lcdfilter:    lcddefault
Xft.rgba:    rgb

I have tried some measures such as creating ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf file and .Xdefaults file but nothing worked.

the text appears bold with a sort of white shine....
