Gnome monospace bold font

https://bbs.archlinux.org – You seem to have quite a few fonts from the AUR.  I have no idea if it would help, but I know I would try removing the 'ttf-unifrakture' package.As I wrote above, I don't use Gnome so my suggestions could be very wrong.  Are you using a custom theme, from outside the main repos?  Do you have the DejaVu fonts installed so that there's a sane fallback to match any missing fonts?You might want to pare down the number of 'foreign' fonts ('foreign' as pacman sees foreign).  This command should list most of the fonts installed from the AUR: (HowTos)

Nedit-missing fonts 2 years 27 weeks ago

I've downloaded Nedit and am trying to tweak the fonts since the defaults are ugly/unreadable.

The font list is missing many of the fonts installed on my machine, for example gedit shows monospace but nedit does not. Any way to make nedit aware of all the fonts?.

Also, does nedit support anti-aliased fonts?.

Thanks.

Fedora 18: Xfig fonts 19 weeks 4 days ago

I am running fedora 18 with Mate Desktop. I have installed xfig. It complains of missing fonts for practically all fonts. Those fonts which do show up are spaced wide apart.

I have installed xorg-x11-font-misc in addition to a whole lot of fonts needed by latex. I have also installed msttcore-fonts.

Fonts disappearing 2 years 48 weeks ago

I just installed my Windows fonts like I normally do(/usr/share/fonts/truetype/fonts). I did sudo fc-cache -f -v and restarted. When I logged on and went too Google there were no fonts on the page. I tried other websites such as this forum, Neowin and Bing. All didn't have fonts. FontyPython said "Font may be bad and cannot be drawn."

$ fc-list | sed 's,:.*,,' | sort -ulists everything except Type1 directory contents.Meanwhile fc-cache  searches and caches /usr/share/fonts/Type1$ xlsfonts|grep nimbus  shows the font.% xset q /.../ Font Path: /usr/share/fonts/100dpi,/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/share/fonts/cyrillic/,/usr/share/fonts/local/,/usr/share/fonts/misc/,/usr/share/fonts/TTF/,/usr/share/fonts/Type1/

I have accidentally deleted some of the fonts from /usr/share/fonts folder. They must have been crucial since now I have various display problems ( underscore and font size display ).

I have already tried resetting gnome and system fonts settings but it does not solve the problem.

On OS X, monospaced fonts are slightly more weighted than the other fonts. This (I feel) helps bring out the colors more vividly.

Since I am on Linux, I'm trying to replicate the behavior.

opensuse v11.2

The Gnome help describes how to install fonts: copy the font files to </usr/share/fonts>. I have some Type1 fonts with PFB, PFM, AFM and sometimes INF face files. The only ones I see in the <Type1> directory are AFM and PFA.

I copied a bunch of .ttf and otf fonts into ~/.fonts, made sure permissions where set to my user/group and ran fc-cache ~/.fonts.

Opened up GIMP and Geany but the fonts aren't available. Any idea what's up?
