[SOLVED] Global Fonts Annihiliated
Well the story starts off 2 days ago when I wanted to disable antialiasing and subpixel rendering (which makes the blue and red coloring on fonts) for fonts under a certain size. At the start I didn't know exactly what everything was so I follow the wikis for "Xorg Font Configuration" and "Fonts". I dont use a ~/.fonts, so all of my editting was done in the /etc/fonts/local.conf.
Basically everything looks like this: http://omploader.org/vMmtjNg/NothingIsSpared.png
Anti aliasing or something is totally missing from everything no matter what I do. I've used the template found at http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xor … _very_good into /etc/fonts/local.conf to no avail. I've reinstalled fonts, and fooled turning things off and on to see if it would make any difference and nothing has.
I'm hoping a xorg or font guru can walk me through some things that could help improve my situtation.

Re: [SOLVED] Global Fonts Annihiliated
Create the file ~/.fonts.conf and put this inside. This will give you anti-aliased fonts with no sub-pixel font rendering:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="antialias">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>Offline

Re: [SOLVED] Global Fonts Annihiliated
That fixes the font in my terminal, and firefox, but not everything:
http://omploader.org/vMmtmNQ/TheDifference.png
Pretty sure its like hinting or something that I don't know much about. :$

Sounds like you want cairo-respect-fontconfig.patch, to fix the confusion between fontconfig's configuration files and your desktop settings (i.e. Gnome, XFCE, whatever you're using).

Re: [SOLVED] Global Fonts Annihiliated
Without hinting, fonts look terrible (like in your first screenshot), so you want to keep that enabled, if you want to disable anti-aliasing. The -lcd packages eliminate the "color fringing" problem, if you'd like to keep anti-aliasing.

Not having anti-aliasing on is what's causing the first screen shot to look like that. Jimi, like myself, finds that sub-pixel font rendering makes fonts look not-so-good. Jimi wants global anti-aliasing without the sub-pixel stuff.

Re: [SOLVED] Global Fonts Annihiliated
I've fixed the subpixel font rendering. But basically, any GTK application's fonts is destroyed.
http://omploader.org/vMmtsYg/RIP-GTK.png
Firefox and urxvt look fine. Everything else is choppy. I can't seem to make any effect on them with anything you guys listed. I've tried the Cairo cleartype, Cairo LCD, to no avail.
The only other thing I fooled with was this.
@Brebs When I log into gnome or xfce (I normally use DWM), there is no issue, so I'm not sure that that is the issue.
Just to let you guys know, everything DID work previously, then I did some stupid editting late at night to try and fix subpixel rendering and basically screwed myself.

Hmm, this is interesting. Setting global fonts in KDE doesn't work too well because system settings will create a ~/.fonts.conf that will override the settings. Anyone know if there is a pkgbuild that has this?

Re: [SOLVED] Global Fonts Annihiliated
Still haven't found a solution--Like I said all GTK apps are suffering from horrible fonts, while FireFox and urxvt are responding to /etc/fonts/local.conf and ~/.fonts.config
I finally found the cairo-respect-fontconfig patch (i think), but i have no idea what to do with it

WOW, it took me so long to find that patch, haha! But yes thank you very much it did work. I learned alot about fonts in the process (and patching). Thanks so much for helping with the learning experience.

Re: [SOLVED] Global Fonts Annihiliated
I put the patch up on AUR:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31438
Just emerge it and the rest of the deps will get pulled in. Works pretty good. All the problems I have been having with FF respecting fontconfig seems to be gone (only been using it for a bit). Not running a ~/.fonts.conf and the fonts look good.

</fontconfig>Setting them up is a pain in the ass. I think there is a fontconfig cache or something and they didn't want to take for awhile. Took a few reboots and playing around with links before they finally set.
I was hoping this help by KDE problem were system settings writes a new config automatically in the font control panel and bjorks the fonts, but no luck. Guess i'll have to avoid it a little longer.

Yeah, you're right. I thought that this may be a non-standard way of doing things, but the more I think about it cairo respecting global preferences as standard behavior makes more sense. I'll talk to the maintainer about it.

So which one do you recommend to install cairo-ubuntu or cairo-ubuntu-respect ?
- With the patch (didn't find it yet) ?
- With or without Brebs' fonts.conf ?
- With or without Gen2ly's local.conf?
Thank you in advance

[EDIT] So I ended up using:
- cairo-ubuntu-respect (I know I shouldn't but I'll wait until the patch gets into cairo-ubuntu)
- no ~/.fonts.conf
- added /etc/fonts/local.conf from the post above but without the "." after "hintstyle"
[EDIT2] I messed it up so I went back to
- cairo-ubuntu-respect (I know I shouldn't but I'll wait until the patch gets into cairo-ubuntu)
- ~/.fonts.conf from Breb
- no /etc/fonts/local.conf
The result is pretty nice (much nicer than cairo-lcd).

Re: [SOLVED] Global Fonts Annihiliated
Updated system on Nov 1st with new version of Xorg. As it wanted me to uninstall libxft-ubuntu-respect I went back to the original libxft/freetype2/cairo but kept the ~/.fonts.conf from Breb. The result is fantastic. Crisp and clear.
