Depends on your settings. But yeah, with the lower-bandwidth settings
Cleartype and other things are disabled by default (but you can
reenable with no problem)

And yes, this in the past already had caused tests to fail.
see https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/26981/ for one I ran into.

Spice might also cause cleartype to be disabled, not sure..
