    A good idea would be to post that file.
    An alternative would be to remove the contents of /etc/fonts/conf.d and reinstall the fontconfig package. Then follow the instructions in the wiki to get a better font rendering.
    Good luck

    @SamC If you have a LCD with vrgb than at the moment stepping back to qt 4.4.x would be the better solution. See here: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/13977
    If not, than playing with the "antialiasing" and "sub-pixel rendering" settings of fontconfig (/etc/fonts/conf.d or ~/.fonts.conf) could solve it. Good luck.

  • Strange characters on websites after setting preferred in fonts.conf

    After setting preferred fonts in fonts.conf, websites are displaying all sorts of misplaced characters like arabic glyphs, a Tux icon, english glyphs that are out-of-place, like such:
    http://imageshack.com/a/img661/548/tIVwdh.png
    I'm just using one prefered font for serif and one for sans. But I don't understand why arabic and english glyphs would be appearing. Do I need to add a symbol font to my preferred fonts? Or what? Thx.

    You're editing /etc/fonts/fonts.conf?, because that's supposed to break the configuration. The wiki-recommended way is to create a file in /etc/fonts/conf.d such as 60-preferences.conf, and put the preferences there. Mine which works on my box contains

    Additionally, if you edited /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, delete or move it somewhere else, and reinstall the default fonts.conf by running

  • [SOLVED] Ugly fonts :/

    Hi,
    I dont know why did this happen. I'm a Gnome user and I wanted to take a look on KDE, so I've instaled KDEmod. I didn't have polish language charecters, so I wantet to change the font in KDE (using KDE Settings Tool) while I was switching through fonts and font's options - antialiasing, suddenly the fonts changed to ugly! I logged back to Gnome and its the same! I dont know what happened. When I delete the ~/.gconf I have the same problem, changing fonts in gnome-control-center doesnt help as all fonts there look ugly:
    http://matchil.hopto.org/fonts.png
    I've deleted the ~/.kde and even ~/.qt but its still the same. I have no idea what is responsible fot this? X11? Or maybe its some update error (I doubt it thou). Please help me as I am freaking out withi this fonts, I want me nice fonts back .
    SOLUTION: rm -f ~/.fonts.conf

    I've tried, but fc-cache -vf seems to rebuild the font cache, I've logged in to OpenBox and fonts in OB menu and in OB windows bars looks ok, but the one using gtk/qt no . I dont even know with which config files or setting should I mess with
    I've also added a brand new user. I made him start gnome-session -> he has brilant fonts ! So its something in my home dir

  • [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.

  • [SOLVED] Fat fonts in KDE

    Hi everyone,
    I'm using the ubuntu patched packages from AUR and my fonts look great on GTK apps but they look fat (bold) in KDE/Qt apps. I recall this happened too with the infinality packages so I'm sure it must be some configuration option, maybe some leftover from all the font things I've tried and messed with to get the fonts how I wanted.
    I want my fonts in KDE apps to look like the GTK ones as in the screenshot attached. Any ideas what might be the problem?
    GTK
    KDE
    Here's my /etc/fonts/fonts.conf ~/.fonts.conf in case it helps.
    Thanks.

    Which ones?
    I've got installed cairo-ubuntu fontconfig-ubuntu freetype2-ubuntu libxft-ubuntu and keep installed an old version of ubuntu fonts. My configuration looks exactly the same as yours, so, according to this (read the comments), you could try changing the hinting style from slight to medium in system settings/fonts/configure anti-aliasing. It will overwrite your ~/.fonts.conf, so do a backup copy before
    Or, better, if your ttf-ubuntu-font-family version is 0.71.2-1, downgrade it to 0.70.1, the third comment from the top will instruct you on how to do that.
    If it doesn't work, could you please post the directory listing of /etc/fonts/conf.d ?

  • [SOLVED] Infinality Font Configuration

    I recently installed the Infinality patchsat {freetype2-git-infinality} and the corresponding Windows 7 fonts {ttf-win7-fonts} packet and ever since I have not had any fonts available other than the ones which were installed with the ttf-win7-fonts package.
    Passing fc-cache -f -v returns

    I also don't understand why it is reporting that there are 0 fonts in directories when I know there are fonts. For example, in /usr/share/fonts/artwiz-fonts:

    As a result any application which was using fonts not found within the Windows 7 font set displays incorrectly.
    It seems that /etc/fonts/local.conf is replaced with /etc/fonts/conf.avail/52-infinality.conf and my ~/.Xresources is no longer needed. Could that have anything to do with it?

    It seems that Infinality also disables bitmap fonts in the 52-infinality.conf file. The solution is to edit the following section in /etc/fonts/conf.avail/52-infinality.conf

  • [solved] "monospace" font displayed as some other font

    For some reason (that I am unable to figure out for myself), the "monospace" font on my system is not displayed as such, but replaced by some other font, presumably* by the last one installed to the system. See this screenshot of uzbl-browser as an example; leafpad's font-selection dialog would be another.
    * A while back (don't remember when) "monospace" started being displayed as some pleasant sans-serif font, which I did not investigate. When I installed some blackletter fonts (ttf-unifraktur) recently, it started being displayed as one of them, which is more of a nuisance, see screenshot.)
    What could be going on here? What is the "monospace" font anyway?
    Last edited by Franek (2014-02-27 20:54:20)

    First: I probably should have mentioned that I am using the infinality-bundle and infinality-bundle-fonts repositories.
    (Re-)Installing ttf-dejavu instantly made uzbl pretty again. But actually, I did not have ttf-dejavu installed in the first place, but t1-dejavu-ib from the infinality-bundle-fonts repository. When I change back to t1-dejavu-ib, Monospace is displayed as a blackletter font again.
    Here is the output of "fc-match monospace" with ttf-dejavu installed:
    $ fc-match monospace
    DejaVuSansMono.ttf: "DejaVu Sans Mono" "Book"
    And here it is with t1-dejavu-ib:
    $ fc-match monospace
    sawarabi-gothic-medium.ttf: "Sawarabi Gothic" "Medium"
    About this font (which is certainly not the blackletter font I am seeing in uzbl):
    $ pacman -Qs sawarabi
    local/ttf-sawarabi-ib 0.0045-2 (infinality-bundle-fonts)
    Sawarabi font family for Japanese script.

  • [solved]Mono font substitution problem in gnome terminal

    I have to edit mono font substitution in 65-nonlatin* in /etc/fonts/conf.d
    Still don't understand why font rendering in terminal is different from the rest of the system though...
    Don't know where else to post this, so it ends up here...
    I just upgraded fontconfig today and substituted the ubuntu packages (cairo, freetype2 and libxft) with the cleartype ones (as the later are up-to-date and turn out looking cool too).
    The only problem I have now is that mono font substitutiton got messed up in gnome-terminal.
    Both gedit and terminal use the system mono font (which is set to Monospace), with Liberation Mono as the preferred font. But somehow the terminal decides to use a different font (looki like my Chinese font: wenquanyi-zenhei).
    If I tell the terminal to use Liberation Mono, I get a serifed Chinese font, so this is not a solution for me.
    I've read somewhere that gnome-terminal does not follow the system fontconfig? It gave me a lot of trouble the last time I upgrade the relevant files. So unfortunate that it decides to be naughty again this time...

    http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Configuring_locales instructed me to 'export LANG=en_EN.utf8' to set the system language to english, yet that locale doesn't exist in locale.gen. Of course, I had neglected to look in locale.gen for such an entry to uncomment it, or I would have noticed the error sooner. All is working now.

  • Per-user fonts.conf not being honored?

    I'm trying to disable emboldening for monospace fonts, which is known for causing alignment issues in text editors for fonts that don't have a bold typeface. I put the following in my ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf file :
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
    <fontconfig>
    <match target="font">
    <test name="spacing" compare="eq">
    <const>mono</const>
    </test>
    <edit name="embolden" mode="assign">
    <bool>false</bool>
    </edit>
    </match>
    </fontconfig>
    However, the changes don't seem to be applied - Inconsolata is still rendered as fake-bold in Geany. I tried running fc-cache -r and rebooting, but it didn't seem to have any kind of effect.
    What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance for any ideas.

    @brebs, I tried that and all my monospace fonts got ugly, like you said. So I guess that the match is matching. However, it's still no-go when it comes to disabling the "embolden" attribute.
    I ended up with just removing 90-synthetic.conf, like @ondoho said. However, I'd still like to find out what's causing this kind of behaviour.

  • Anyone care to share their fonts.conf?

    Hi guys,
    Just finished setting up my Arch development box and it was a pleasure doing so (man Arch makes life easy).
    The only thing I dislike is the default font rendering.
    * DPI = 96x96 in xorg (xdpyinfo also shows 96 DPI)
    * Sub pixel hinting = RGB (FULL)
    * nvidia installed
    * I have installed all the necessary font packages (ms fonts, deja vu, etc). 
    * using XFCE4
    I think that this could be fixed with some tweaking in fonts.conf (don't currently have one).  Anyone care to share some tips (wiki doesn't seem to have a lot on this topic).
    Thanks,

  • [solved]terminus font without xorg.conf

    Hi
    I start X without a xorg.conf as every conf I tried did not work. Without the conf X works perfectly.
    But I now want the terminus font for my WM and pacman installed them in /usr/share/fonts/local
    This directory is not recognized by X by default.
    Additional font directories are usually specified in the xorg.conf, but I don't have one.
    I can manually set the font path with:
    mkfontdir
    xset fp+ /usr/share/fonts/local
    xset fp rehash
    I now see the font in xfontsel.
    But when I restart X, it's gone..
    Is there a way to fix this?

  • [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] Strange font problem - after update.

    Hello guys,
    encountered a strange small font problem on sites with code wrappers like stackoverflow/blogs/jsfiddle. After update. took a look at my font setup all looks good.
    I've also checked the settings for gtk2/3 and no problems there.

    Update:
    Tried reinstalling, change the fonts, remove all font clear the cache.
    change, look up the settings, looked up size, tried monitor dpi.
    checked all the config files for anything remotely related to this problem.
    Had a quick look at the bug tracker for google-chrome-beta as well no reported
    font problems as far as i can find.
    Update2:
    Tried adding custom.css to the browser not even that worked.
    update3: [SOLVED]
    So i solved the problem.
    The problem was a faulty font that was stuck and used in the pre somehow.
    Removed and added another to the list and somehow that worked.
    recommendations - if anyone has this problem in the future.
    open firefox and look in the font tab what is used. and remove that
    or try to install a fixed one. that should work.
    -Nothing has yielded any working results.
    So any ideas at this point would be most appreciated.
    Thanks,
    -L
