I am wondering if I messed up something during my build of Xorg. Some |
5 |
fonts look real nice on my system while others look like junk. |
6 |
|
7 |
Here is a page showing what is going on: |

Courier looks like garbage until about 16px. |
11 |
|
12 |
Courier New looks better, though it is faint and not well aliased/hinted. |
13 |
|
14 |
Bitstream Vera Mono looks nice, along with all the other Bitstream fonts. |
15 |
|
16 |
My problem is that there are a lot of web sites (coding) that have |
17 |
"code" sections that use Courier as the font, for example the Gentoo |

I also get a lot of MS Word and MS Excel documents from work that all |
22 |
use MS Fonts like Arial, Times New Roman, etc. |
23 |
|
24 |
Is there anything I can do to fix up these fonts? I have the following |
25 |
TTF fonts installed: |
26 |
|
27 |
/usr/share/fonts/TTF/ |
28 |
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/ |
29 |
/usr/share/fonts/corefonts/ |
30 |
/usr/share/fonts/ttf-bitstream-vera/ |
31 |
|
32 |
Thanks, |
