I am running Linux Mint 12 and trying to startup emacs but keep getting this error:
font 'serif 10' is not defined
It seems obvious to me that I don't have the correct font.
I noticed that every page I visit from Opera except this archlinux website has this horrible monospaced font displayed. I went to the font settings in Opera and switched defaults to sans serif fonts but still this monospaced font is everywhere. I checked author mode and user mode and each mode displays the same font.
I use the following in my .emacs to set my default font to Ubuntu Mono:
(set-face-attribute 'default nil :font "Ubuntu Mono")
However, the defauly font size is too tiny for me. In my menubar I see Options->Set Default Font..., but the changes I make there does not propogate to my next session.
Should I be setting something in .emacs to set default font size? (I like it to be 24)
Thanks!
Hello there,
I'm very new to Ubuntu, as the thread's title. Why the san-serif in Ubuntu is displayed better than san-serif font in Windows?
Especially in website...
I created an emacs theme using color-theme, everything looks like I want it to look except for the preprocessor lines. I'd them to have the sharp to use one color and the rest of the keyword another one.
I know that:
Default font-is just default
Document font-for Documents
Window title fonts is for titles.
What the others are for? What is monospace font? I only know it's a font like any font.
Hinting is for notices like the names of objects in the dock, isn't it?
You're welcome. Terminus is a bitmapped font but I don't know if that's the issue. I do remember a truetype font that looked pretty similar but- ummm... don't remember what it's actually called. :p Maybe someone will jump in with recommendations. There's also some fixed-width font examples here: http://www.lowing.org/fonts/in case you see anything you like.
I've been trying to do this for ages, but I've never been able to find any concrete details as to how to do this. I'd like to set the start up font so that it looks like the one used in like Debian, Ubuntu, and other distros, instead of the bitmap font that I currently have set as the terminal font.

OK then: before you do anything else, please take a look at your /etc/fonts/conf.avail and /etc/fonts/conf.d. This is where the font engine is actually tuned. The file 65-nonlatin.conf is the one when you can set priority of your non-latin fonts for a certain language.
