They look less "pixeled" then.
This is good for huge fonts, because they look "rounded".
But depending on your monitor and your eyes, such fonts can be difficult to read at small sizes.
So here is a description, how to avoid antialias at small sizes.
That picture shows the result:

I installed this Dotpup, but I am not shure you need that:

Then I deleted all files in /etc/fonts (rename them!)
I added a new /etc/fonts/fonts.conf
Code: Select all
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<!-- /etc/fonts/local.conf file for local customizations -->
<fontconfig>
<dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir>
<dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir> <dir>/opt/ttfonts</dir> <dir>/usr/share/yudit/fonts</dir>
<dir>~/.fonts</dir>
<match target="font">
<test name="size" compare="less">
<double>13</double>
</test>
<edit name="antialias" mode="assign">
<bool>false</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<test name="pixelsize" compare="less" qual="any">
<double>13</double>
</test>
<edit mode="assign" name="antialias">
<bool>false</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
Maybe, you will not see what you expected.
You have to force Gtk2-applications like leafpad,to use a font, that looks good.
Create a file /root/.gtkrc-2.0
Code: Select all
style "user-font" {
font_name = "lucida 12"
}
widget_class "*" style "user-font"
I use fluxbox, with the Aqua-Theme.
So I edited
/root/.fluxbox/styles/FluxAqua
I replaced the line
Code: Select all
*font: Andale-12
Code: Select all
*font: -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
cd /root/.fonts
mkfontscale `pwd`
mkfontdir `pwd`
xset fp+ /root/.fonts
