According to the Mirror Status page, my mirror is 100% up to date.I don't think changing the font will help since the problem affects at least 3 different fonts (Mutter window title font, GTK+ 3 menu font, Gnome Terminal font, Chomium tab font) simultaneously.

In Ubuntu 12.10 Beta 2, I've tried using Ubuntu Tweak to change the window title bar font, but after it's changed in the application, it's not reflected throughout the system. I've tried different fonts at different sizes with no luck; the window title font and size stay the same.
I know this is a beta release, but all the other fonts change on the system when I change them in Ubuntu Tweak.
I'm making a PDF and I don't want to embed fonts inside it.
When I used Tahoma Foxit Reader substituted it for some default font on linux.
What is this font?
What font should I use so the Foxit Reader will not have to substitute font?
Installing fonts is not an option since the Client should be able to view this PDF on linux without having to install some fonts and stuff.
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.
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 have tried several monospace fonts for the terminal and for programming, but the best by far is the old "Screen" font from SGI (see sample below).
It is a bitmapped font that comes in all point sizes in the range from 7 to 18. Even at the smallest sizes it is amazingly readable.
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 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
Yeah, so there's the question. I wondered if it was possible to use the Ubuntu font in the terminal. I know how to change the font, but using anything except a monospace font doesn't really work very well.
