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.

WOW! Thanks it's working now!How I solved:yum install xorg-x11-fonts-miscyum install xorg-x11-fonts-Type1 [by mattias9410]

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.

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.

These would be bitmap fonts needed by X.

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."

I am trying to get the fonts in my wine programs in Arch to look as sharp as they are in #! but I don't know if I am missing a file. I am using infinality patches.  Here's a screenshotOnly the actual programs fonts look blurry. The menu fonts and window decorations (or any fonts against the gray wine background) look normal.

Large Fonts 1 week 3 days ago

I need larger fonts for my '10-foot interface'. I looked at the output of xlsfonts and seems like the biggest fonts are 36-point. Are larger fonts available? I remember doing something like this years ago and I was able to install 45-point, or even 60-point fonts. Does anyone know where I can find bigger fonts?

Thank you.
