[SOLVED] Different font rendering in two accounts/users...

Hi!
I have this slight problem of fonts. The rendering of font in one account from another is somehow different (or is it just my eyes? ). Anyways, here's a screenshot of my terminal and firefox. Fonts are similar for both:
Account 1 (I was thinking how to apply this same setting to the other account):
Terminal:
Firefox:
Account 2 (has blurry fonts):
Terminal:
Firefox:
For the configurations, I don't think I have a ~/.fonts.conf on both users. For the terminal, I only have the settings that is found on http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xde … t_Settings. For the terminal, I think it's just my eyes Kindly let me know if you think the same way too.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi again,
Check the font config in your window manager (xfce, kde, gnome, etc.).
I have openbox. Not entirely sure where is it's font configurations. I checked rc.xml and ran obconf. I searched for the word "alias" but haven't found any. I also tried creating a new user and ran icewm on it though Firefox still looked the same.
Looks like the second firefox picture has subpixel antialiasing on, not the first.
I also tried the font configuration found here.
Thanks for the help.

    Sorry. This doesn't make a lot of sense. Each iPhone user should have their own cloud accounts with which to sync contacts.

    They can't share a catalog stored on the main hard drive, if that's what you want to do, but to just use the program separately, log in to the other user account, open PSE, and if PSE wants to register itself again, let it.

  • [SOLVED] Bad font rendering and overlapping since last update

    Hi all! Since the last updates I'm getting font rendering problems. I'm seeing something like this in lots of applications:
    See the "ce" in Facebook, those letters are kinda overlapped! This happens in Nautilus too, for example in the word "devel". I'm using the Ubuntu patches for font rendering, but actually I have problems even with the stock packages.
    I'm on a fresh install right now (I really needed to clean the old one, too much experimenting xD) and I keep having this problem.
    Can anyone help me?
    SOLVED I downgraded pango from 1.32.1-1 to 1.30.1-1 and everything went back to normality

  • [SOLVED] Bad font rendering after last update (pango issue?)

    I am getting very strange font rendering problem. Look at the screen below. It only affects gtk windows (as you can see below HTML text is currently displayed, but url bar and context menu is not). I belive it appeared after upgrading pango package to 1.32, but downgrading it as instructed here (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=151886), didn't help. Does anybody know what can it be? Any hints where to look for the solution?

  • [SOLVED] TrueType font rendering issues

    The problem I have run into is related to TrueType fonts.
    I have a netbook that I reinstalled Arch on. I have an i3-wm setup with an i3bar populated by i3status.
    I have multiple items that use unicode icons using the ttf-icons font.
    I installed two fonts, gohufont and ttf-icons, albeit in an unusualy way. Due to external reasons, the machine doesn't have an Internet connection, so I had to install the fonts sort-of manually.
    I downloaded the necessary files for the fonts and did it this way: the gohufont is in pcf format compressed with gzip. I looked at the fonts PKGBUILD file and manually repeated the installation process via `install(1)'. It was installed in /usr/share/fonts/misc. I did the same with ttf-icons and it is installed in /usr/share/fonts/TTF. After doing so, I updated the font cache via `fc-cache -fv'. Both fonts show up in the output of fc-list(1), Gohufont works fine, but the icons font doesn't.
    The .i3status.conf contains format lines with icons from the font and the ones that were in the file when it was retrieved from the machine it was running on do actually show up and render in the bar. Upon adding a new unicode symbol from vim via ^v+u+<char code>, it turns into a representation of ^<letter> (the color highlight indicates that it is a unicode char). The other glyphs aren't being rendered properly in vim either, as opposed to all being fine previously. Instead of the actual glyph, they show up as a sequence of: <rounded square with a question mark in it><tilde><letter>[<another tilde><another letter>]<round square with a question mark> (probably the closing symbol). After saving the file, the untouched glyphs still show up properly, but the added ones show up as wide blocks with digit codes in them.
    I am using gnome-terminal with a bash shell. Upon opening the font selection dialog in gnome-terminal and selecting the icons font, it is rendered as square blocks with numbers in them (thus, indicating that they didn't render properly).
    I also attempted placing them in appropriate subfolders under ~/.fonts and then running `mkfontscale', `mkfontdir' in the ~/.fonts directory and then appending the directory to the font path via `xset fp+ ~/.fonts' and rehashing via `xset fp rehash' and updating the font cache again via `fc-cache -fv'. Still no dice.
    I assume this might be a unicode problem, seeing as they're not being rendered in the terminal editor properly either.
    xorg-font-util, xorg-font-utils, fontconfig and freetype2 are all installed.
    Any tips or pointers would be highly appreciated.
    Update: I had forgotten to set the default locale, so it was "C". I have set LANG to en_US.UTF-8 in /etc/locale.conf and have explicitely exported the LANG variable to the same value in my .bashrc. For some reason, it didn't apply after restarting X or logging out and in, so I set it using `localectl set-locale' and that did take effect. Now the old unicode glyph characters are all round squares with questionmarks inside them in the config file when opened in VIM and the new one is still a ^<letter>. The old ones render in the bar but the new one doesn't.
    Update2: So apparently, a reboot was necessary for the changes to take effect system wide. The icons now appear in the terminal and everything. I just had to delete the ^<letter> representation of the broken one in the configuration file and re-enter it again. So this seems to be resolved. I will write down a step-by-step solution some time later (might be tomorrow, as I don't have the time at the moment). Anyone looking for a solution will probably find one here.

  • [solved] Pango font rendering issues

    I'm having issues with pango rendering of pcf fonts. I was trying to set up a new font for my awesome theme, but my choices are fairly limited because all the pcf fonts are rendered as some default font. So then I was going around googling the issue, and font that awesome renders fonts using pango. I then tried to use pango-view to view the pcf files, and it displayed the same default font. These fonts show up fine in xfontsel and they render properly in urxvt. In my googling I found someone on slackware was facing a similar issue back in 2010, but no solution was posted. Is this a known/common problem, and does anyone know a fix?
    Edit: I'm not sure if this matters, but I also have freetype2-infinality installed from the AUR.

    Wow, I can't believe it was that simple. I had read my fontsconfig rules, however I'm new playing with fonts so none of it really meant anything to me when I originally read it, and I simply changed a few of the default fonts.. Going back over it now, it makes a lot more sense. Thanks for the help.

  • [solved]Wine font rendering + libmpg123 question

    Not sure how to describe the problem, so please refer to screenshot below. I have the MS font package installed. I've modified the registry according to the wine wiki article. I tried symlinking my ttf fonts directory to the .wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts directory. I have even tried copying the entire ttf directly into the .wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts directory. I still cannot read anything. As you can see from the screenshot, the Tahoma font example shows up clearly, but nothing else is legible. What can I do to get to the bottom of this?
    Additionally, I get this error when I invoke wine.
    err:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"winemp3.acm": libmpg123.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    Is this related to my issue? I thought libmpg123 only affected mp3 support. Is it necessary to have libmpg123? I assumed it wasn't since it's not in any of the repos.
    Last edited by drtoki (2009-09-09 20:04:22)

    i get the same 'winemp3' stuff.
    Wine now uses external 'libmpg123' for mp3 decoding. (patent issues)
    maybe the arch devs need to add '--without-libmpg123' in the build, to fix this.
    http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t … =libmpg123
    regarding the fonts, try;
    Installing 'ttf-ms-fonts' and 'ttf-tahoma'
    link the installed Truetype fonts to wine;
    # ln -s /usr/share/fonts/TTF /usr/share/wine/fonts
    btw Wine is starting to use alot of external native nix packages now, which is a good thing. (i.e. ms fonts, decoders ect..)

  • Different fonts in the same field

    Is it possible to format a single field with two different fonts. I have concatenated two database columns to get this field. But I want different fonts for the two columns. I could achieve this by using a format trigger and placing some html tags. But this solution only works if the output is in HTML style sheets. It does not work if I want the output to be in PDF. Does anybody know how to achieve it in PDF? Is it possible at all (from what I have seen it isn't). I will be grateful for any help in this direction.
    Thanks
    Janaki

    Hi!
    Try this:
    Let say you have scott/tiger and emp-table and want to concatenate and print ename and job in the same field but with different fonts.
    1. In the Database model you have the columns seperate as usual.
    2. Create a boileplate text field and put &ENAME &JOB in this field.
    3. Select &ENAME and set the right font to it, set another font for &JOB.
    4. Run and test. This should work...

  • Font rendering is screwed up on my Galaxy Tab 2 7

    I'm using the latest Firefox Android browser on both my Galaxy Tab 2 7 running Jelly Bean as well my old i9000 phone running Gingerbread. On the phone, font sizes are rendered consistently across sites. However, on the tablet, pages such as Google News home page are messed up with text blocks that are rendered in the same font size on the desktop or phone being rendering in varied font sizes. This problem is also found on other sites. Is this something to do with the different font rendering on Jelly Bean that trips up many an Android app since Firefox seems to work fine on Gingerbread and, if so, can something be done about it as it is an excellent browser otherwise?

    Firefox and every other smartphone browser uses an algorithm to make pages designed for desktop browsers more readable. Though you see it more often on Firefox because website designers have been building restrictive mobile sites that only work on Safari iOS and the Android stock browser.
    There are certain web sites such as forums where this algorithm does not work so well. This results is 'random' text sizes. If you want to read the details of this behavior see http://www.jwir3.com/blog/2012/07/30/font-inflation-fennec-and-you/ This is described in the section "Incorrect Flow Roots".
    If you want to make the text size regular but smaller on desktop websites you can go into the Firefox settings.
    * Press the menu button
    * Scroll down to the settings and tap it
    * Scroll down to 'Text size' and tap it
    * Press the small 'A' till the text size is at the smallest size
    * Press set

  • [SOLVED]A nice sharp font renderer (not as sharp as windows)

    Is there another font renderer out there? I tried freetype the default and that gives me blurry edges. Infinality is not better in my opinion. Same blurry edges too many configurations. Are there any other renderers out there?

    # normally in local.conf. The reason hintfull and autohint:0 is needed here
    # because otherwise some programs will occassionally request slight hinting for
    # a truetype font. When a program does this, Freetype automatically uses the

    # /etc/fonts/local.conf to be rendered that way.) For TT fonts that you want
    # rendered with autohint, specifiying that in the /etc/fonts/local.conf
    # should be enough. But you might think that by setting this to hintfull

    # INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_SNAP_STEM_HEIGHT
    # When using autohinting, horizontal stems you'd find in E, f, T, -,
    # etc. are normally not snapped to full integer pixel heights, meaning
    # that you will get a semi-dark fringe on these stems, above or
    # below the black line of pixels:
    # (- represents the semi-dark pixels)
    # Setting this to 100 will force integer pixel heights. Setting it to
    # zero will do what Freetype does by default. Anything inbetween will
    # act as a weighted average of the two.
    # This is disabled when the standard width is found (via voodoo) to be
    # less than 1 pixel, in order to prevent the vanishing stem issues on
    # letters with diagonal stems like a and s.
    # Under most circumstances, this should be set at 100. If you choose to
    # not set it to 100, you may want to set INFINALITY_FT_FRINGE_FILTER_STRENGTH
    # to a non-zero value in order to reduce fringing.
    # Possible values:
    # 0 - default Freetype value

    # INFINALITY_FT_GAMMA_CORRECTION
    # This does a weighted gamma correction at the LCD filter phase
    # PRIOR to the LCD filter. Unfortunately it does not however
    # take into account the color on which the glyph is being rendered
    # (or for that matter the color of the glyph),
    # which would need to happen in X rendering. It is actually
    # using the gamma function in calculations though.
    # The first value indicates a px value, the second indicates a
    # "gamma" value. All sizes less than the px value will be corrected
    # on a weighted scale based on the second value.
    # The gamma value is commonly between 0.0 and 3.0. Due to localization
    # issues, the gamma value should be specified as it's actual value
    # multiplied by 100. So a gamma of 1.3 would be 130. In practice,
    # I'd stay between 40 and 250.
    # Values 1 through 100 will darken the glyph
    # Values greater than 100 will lighten the glyph
    # Example 1: Darken glyphs that are less than 10 px. With some fonts
    # even 5 or 6px is readable!
    # export INFINALITY_FT_GAMMA_CORRECTION="10 60"

    # For a Windows XP look, set brightness to something and contrast to 50
    # This will also tend to increase its sharpness.
    # These values are relative and don't really mean anything
    # however they are satisfactory for a range of appearances.
    # Another tip is to use a gamma setting of "1000 110" or something
    # over 100 to lighten things before processing.

    # INFINALITY_FT_GRAYSCALE_FILTER_STRENGTH
    # This filter adjusts subpixel-rendered glyphs toward grayscale.
    # Sometimes this is useful in getting a rendering more like
    # OSX.
    # Range: Integers 0 through 100
    # 0 represents no filtering
    # 50 represents halfway between subpixel and grayscale
    # 100 represents completely grayscale
    # Default if no ENV_VARS present: 0
    # Recommended, if you want to use it: 30
    # Example: export INFINALITY_FT_GRAYSCALE_FILTER_STRENGTH="33"
    export INFINALITY_FT_GRAYSCALE_FILTER_STRENGTH="0"
    # INFINALITY_FT_FRINGE_FILTER_STRENGTH
    # This filter tries to remove the horizontal fringing that is found on
    # default autohinted glyphs (similar to OSX-rendered glyphs).
    # For example, an E may be rendered so that the middle horizontal
    # stem is 100% black, but also has a horizonal row of pixels above
    # it that is at 50% intensity. This makes the glyph look dirty,
    # however it is technically accurate.
    # This would be useful in cases where you have
    # INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_SNAP_STEM_HEIGHT set to something less than 100
    # but also can affect glyphs at 100, to some degree.
    # Unless fonts are showing fringes in a way that annoys you, I recommend
    # keeping it disabled, as it can slightly interfere with smooth appearance
    # sometimes.
    # Range: Integers 0 through 100
    # 0 represents no filtering
    # 50 represents a 50% reduction of detected fringes
    # 100 represents completely removing detected fringes
    # Default if no ENV_VARS present: 0
    # Recommended, if you want to use it: 100
    # Example: export INFINALITY_FT_FRINGE_FILTER_STRENGTH="100"
    export INFINALITY_FT_FRINGE_FILTER_STRENGTH="0"
    # INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_HORIZONTAL_STEM_DARKEN_STRENGTH
    # This post-filter darkens horizontal stems that autohint renders as semi-dark.
    # Freetype will by default not force stems to render to pixel boundaries
    # because it results in "vanishing stems". This happens on things like
    # s S a and other glyphs with center diagonal stems.
    # If you have INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_SNAP_STEM_HEIGHT set to 100,
    # you're telling it to force pixel boundaries, which can result in the
    # vanishing stems. To get around this problem, I internally override the
    # INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_SNAP_STEM_HEIGHT setting if the stem width
    # is less than a full pixel, regardless. This causes semi-dark stems, but
    # at least there are stems there.
    # This filter is intended to darken those semi-dark stems. I highly
    # recommend using this, but setting to a low value like 10, because
    # it is particularly sensitive right now, and can make thin fonts
    # look weird otherwise.
    # Range: Integers 0 through 100
    # 0 represents no darkening
    # 50 represents a 50% increase toward 1 pixel in height
    # 100 represents a full pixel of height
    # Default if no ENV_VARS present: 0
    # Recommended, if you want to use it: 10
    # Example: export INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_HORIZONTAL_STEM_DARKEN_STRENGTH="10"
    export INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_HORIZONTAL_STEM_DARKEN_STRENGTH="10"
    # INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_VERTICAL_STEM_DARKEN_STRENGTH
    # This post-filter darkens vertical stems less than 1 pixel that autohint
    # renders as semi-dark. This applies mostly to thin fonts like
    # Courier New, Raleway, and fonts with the word "Light" in the title or
    # style. Although what autohint is doing is technically correct, it
    # results in a bad looking rendering because it's too light, at small
    # ppems. This filter tries to correct that.
    # There is an aspect of this that is automatic, so it's safer to use
    # larger values for this than the above horizontal ENV_VAR. However
    # setting this higher has more impact on thinner fonts. So, I still
    # recommend lower values.
    # Range: Integers 0 through 100
    # 0 represents no darkening
    # 50 represents a 50% increase (from current strength) toward 1 pixel
    # 100 represents a full pixel of width
    # Default if no ENV_VARS present: 0
    # Recommended, if you want to use it: 25

    export INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_VERTICAL_STEM_DARKEN_STRENGTH="25"
    # INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_INCREASE_GLYPH_HEIGHTS
    # This will slightly stretch some glyphs vertically between 9px
    # and 14px (inclusive). Some people may find this more
    # aesthetically pleasing. This only applies to fonts that are
    # using autohint. I used to recommend this to be set true, but
    # it does mess with some (less popular) glyphs in a nasty way.
    # The goal here is to increase the height of some fonts by 1 px
    # but leave the x-height where it is. Arial is a good example
    # of this working properly. Compare the heights of Arial, Times
    # and Freesans with this on, vs. TT hinted versions of Arial and
    # Times.

  • Library problems with two XP user accounts accessing music in shared folder

    I'm sorry if this has already been answered; I have not been able to find the answer. My wife and I each have a different user account on the same Windows XP machine. I recently combined our iTunes libraries into the shared folder on the computer. I correctly pointed iTunes (in each of our accounts) to the correct location for the music files. I did an "Add Folder to Library" to make sure each account had all of the music. When I did this, I got duplicate listings of all of the songs that also had exclamation points. When I did a "Get Info" on these songs, I found that each song was correctly pointed to the correct file location. I laboriously deleted each "exclamation point" song one at a time (in each account). Now the problem I have is that whenever my wife or I close iTunes and the other person opens iTunes in their XP user account, none of the songs can be found. The best way I've been able to resolve this is to (unfortunately) delete the entire library, and do an "Add Folder To Library" to find all of the song locations and include all of the songs back into the library. Surely this can't be how this is supposed to work.
    So, my questions are:
    - Do I need to add new albums / songs one at a time to avoid duplicates (rather than use the "Add Folder" for the entire iTunes music folder again)?
    - How do I setup iTunes so that my wife and I can each go into iTunes in our seperate XP accounts and have all of our songs right where we left them (WITHOUT having to delete the entire libary and "add" again.)
    FYI: I'm using the latest version of iTunes and (again) I'm using Windows XP.
    My wife and I really want to each get a new iPod Nano, but if I can't trust iTunes... forget it.
    THANKS!!!

    I have this setup at working. Two accounts with all files stored on a shared folder, mine is a network drive. Each account has its own library and can access all files. We also use one iTunes account for rare purchases.
    This is how did initial setup:
    Make a folder in the shared folder. I called mine itunes.
    This is where iTunes stores its files.
    With second account point iTunes at shared folder.
    Import the folder you created earlier.
    This worked for me without duplications. The only complication is that when importing from CD with one account the other doesn't know it. The other account must do import on the folder for the CD just imported. We keep track of this with a spreadsheet updated to show which account has which CD files.

  • I have an icloud account with two other users besides myself.  We share the same game center.  We want our own. My two children want their own Clash of Clans account!  What do I do?

    I have an icloud account with two other users besides myself.  We share the same game center.  We want our own. My two children want their own Clash of Clans account!  What do I do?

    Log out of Gamecenter and try downloading CoC again. if it doesn't prompt you with a new village, try downloading with a different apple id. if that doesn't work, you would need a new device to create a new village and transferring it to your sons device using the code in the CoC settings.

  • Can 2 users have the same email login with different passwords for seperate itunes accounts

    My daughter is currently using the home email address for her account and i have just purchased an ipad. I would like a seperate account. Is it possible to use the same email address as the login and have two accounts.
    Thanks
    Tracey (a mum who is trying to catch up with technology)

    It is possible to have two different Apple ID accounts and have a common contact email address, if that is what you are asking. The potential problem is that the Apple ID is in the form of an email address so it can cause some confusion. It would probably be best to actually own the email addresses that match the account IDs.
