Hi,
ln -sv /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/11-lcdfilter-default.conf . ln -sv /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-sub-pixel-rgb.conf .
Unfortunately, sub-pixel rendering of freetype2 from the official repository is disabled due to patents. If you want to use sub-pixel rendering at your own risk, you need to rebuild it. Here is a quick guide to you: 1. First, check what is Helvetica on your system: $ fc-match Helvetica file :file=/path/to/your/helvetica.otf 2. Then, find the best hinting configuration by $ ftview 16 /path/to/your/helvetica.otf 3. Set the hinting configuration to your Helvetica The Arch's documentation will be helpful. If you change hinting configuration for all the fonts on your system, you can use YaST > Fonts. Hope this helps, Fuminobu TAKEYAMA On 2016/03/15 21:14, Bjoern Voigt wrote:
My fonts do not look very good in Tumbleweed. For instance the letter "i" looks like letter "l" in Helvetica.
My setup: * Tumbleweed 20160307 * KDE Plasma desktop * font related settings in my $HOME cleared (files removed) * a copy of all Windows 8.1 fonts in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ * NVidia GTX 750 * Eizo EV2336W monitor
The files in /etc/fonts are unmodified with some exceptions:
Extra file /etc/fonts/conf.d/00kde.conf with the content: <?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <fontconfig> <dir>/usr/local/share/fonts</dir> </fontconfig> (I installed two extra fonts in /usr/local/share/fonts with the KDE font installer.)
I also tried to activate two configurations from the Arch Linux documentation:
In /etc/fonts/conf.d:
ln -sv /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/11-lcdfilter-default.conf . ln -sv /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-sub-pixel-rgb.conf .
Both setttings did not solved my font problems.
Is there a good guide for openSUSE's fontconfig settings? I tried to follow the documentation for Arch Linux: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/font_configuration
I'd like to use system-wide settings, but KDE tips are welcome too.
Greetings, Björn
