[SOLVED] emacs-cvs fonts

Hi!

I've installed emacs-cvs from Archlinux repositories. I've realized that some text (bold text and special spanish characters) rendering does without antialiasing. When try to change default font, rendering seems not to run correctly at all.

Maybe emacs-cvs problem or fonts problem?

Thanks!

Re: [SOLVED] emacs-cvs fonts

Emacs-cvs uses xft for fonts now. Instead of the old way of naming fonts, you can just say "Monospace-9". If you're still using the old way try changing to this and see if it helps.

I've done that by change settings in .Xdefaults but i get the same, that is, i can change the font but some characters looks not antialiased.

Here's the solution to the anti-aliasing problem: Add the following to your .emacs:

(set-frame-parameter nil 'font-backend '(xft))

Enjoy the beauty.
