Did you see Ivan's font topic: http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=18249 ?After you installed the fonts, did you rebuild the font cache?BlackIvan wrote:If you want to install some new fonts, especially bitmap fonts from outside the repos put them under ~/.fonts or for system wide use under /usr/share/fonts.
I have a large archive of fonts (about 16,000 fonts) that I need convenient access to, without actually installing them all and bogging down my system.
Thanks for the reply.I applyed that configuration in /etc/fonts/local.conf, the page rendering remains the same, i know for sure it was applied since my terminal is screwed up (I use GohuFont).Do i need to install something?
See the attached image. The window in the background is gedit with the fonts rendered smooth. The window on top is NetBeans with not-so-smooth font rendering (not anti-aliased, I think). Both editors use Ubuintu Mono font. Can anyone help me to make NetBeans render the fonts better?
I'm on 12.10.
I used a font manager on Mac OS X, for additional fonts in my graphic design projects without installing them to the fonts folder (I think that's how it works) - using Font Book and Font Explorer X Version 1.2.3 on OS X 10.6.
Most fonts work fine, but Interstate has a problem:
Interstate Regular is installed, but for some reason it's probably not seeing it; it's seeing all the Bold and Condense
Try installing font packages; ttf-vista-fonts and ttf-mac-fonts will probably help with website compatibility, if you have not done so yet.
I recently installed Korean fonts as well as ibus/ibus-hangul so that I can type Korean. I noticed that in Firefox the Korean font looks relatively normal and appropriate... but in Chromium the font is hideous. In Libreoffice the default Korean font is droid sans (fallback) and everytime I choose a different korean font it will not switch to the one I choose... instead keeping the default active.
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
