Hi, anyone know how to enable hinting for fonts in firefox 3.5 ? (in firefox 3.0 i had no problem) The hinting not being taken from gnome font preferences.
This is a screenshoot with a difference of fonts between firefox and thunderbird (for example): http://www.ech0s7.netsons.org/private/f … nting_.bmp
this is $ ~/.fonts.conf
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="rgba" >
<const>rgb</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="hinting" >
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
<const>hintfull</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="antialias" >
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="lcdfilter">
<const>lcddefault</const>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
and $ ls /etc/fonts/conf.d

Try adding this to ~/.Xdefaults (make it if it isn't there).
Xft.hinting = 1
Xft.hintstyle = hintfull

I have the following in /etc/X11/Xresources/sharp-fonts
Xft.antialias: true
Xft.hinting: true
Xft.hintstyle: hintfull
Xft.lcdfilter: lcddefault
Xft.rgba: rgb
based on http://johan.kiviniemi.name/blag/ubuntu-fonts/

Same weird issue as in this thread?

i have fixed in this way: changing hintstyle from "hintfull" to "hintslight" in ~/.fonts.conf. But now why firefox 3.5 doesn't works with hintfull ? I would hintfull for my system...
