ArchLinux, Gnome, Acer and sweet fonts
Thursday, April 10, 2008 14:05Ok I know this has been discussed so many times, and so many users have added their own configurations and suggestions.
My suggestions for sweet font rendering under ArchLinux (Arch Linux), GNOME (GNU Network Object Model Environment ) and Acer Aspire 1694wlmi
In Gnome I use the following settings:
- Rendering: Subpixel smoothing
- Resolution: 96dpi
- Smoothing: Subpixel
- Hinting: full
my ~/.fonts.conf file:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <fontconfig> <match target="font" > <test compare="more" name="weight"> <const>medium</const> </test> <edit mode="assign" name="autohint"> <bool>false</bool> </edit> </match> </fontconfig>
Or simply download my file from here:
Download my .fonts.conf
Finally link your:
/etc/fonts/conf.avail/10-autohint.conf
to /etc/fonts/conf.d
pestilence % ln -s /etc/fonts/conf.d/ /etc/fonts/conf.avail/10-autohint.conf
