90
<p>After changing the X server from XFree to X.org, many people
91
(including myself) took issue with the font rendering and antialiasing,
92
especially those of us with LCD flat panels. This HOWTO makes fonts
93
much, much more readable.
95
<div class="editsection" style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;">[<a href="http://gentoo-wiki.com/index.php?title=HOWTO_Xorg_and_Fonts&action=edit&section=2" title="HOWTO Xorg and Fonts">edit</a>]</div><a name="Emerging_the_necessary_packages"></a><h2> Emerging the necessary packages </h2>
96
<p>I assume that you have X.org installed correctly (X.org must be emerged with the <strong><font color="maroon">bitmap-fonts</font></strong> USE flag in 6.8.0-r3 or <strong><font color="maroon">bitmap-fonts</font></strong>, <strong><font color="maroon">truetype-fonts</font></strong>, and <strong><font color="maroon">type1-fonts</font></strong>
97
flags in 6.8.0-r4 and later). This also assumes you're not running an
98
X-Server for multiple clients and therefore have the font-server USE
99
flag disabled, although it can still apply otherwise.
100
</p><p>These are the necessary packages:
102
<ul><li><a href="http://gentoo-portage.com/wiki.php?s=x11-base/xorg-x11" class="extiw" title="Ebuild:x11-base/xorg-x11">x11-base/xorg-x11</a>

123
<p>When fonts are installed, you have to modify the config files in order to make the system
124
recognize them. These are the files you have to modify:
126
<ul><li>/etc/fonts/local.conf
127
</li><li>/etc/X11/xorg.conf
128
</li><li>~/.fonts.conf

133
<p>An editable configuration file for the Xft font system. Changes to <font color="green">/etc/fonts/local.conf</font> are system wide. Note, however, that the user font configuration file <font color="green">~/.fonts</font>
134
takes precedence over system wide changes "in most cases." The only
135
option that cannot be overridden by user settings is the anti-aliasing
136
setting. In <font color="green">/etc/fonts/local.conf</font> it is not necessary to set all the font directories, unless you install fonts in non-standard places. <font color="green">/etc/fonts/fonts.conf</font> includes <font color="green">/usr/share/fonts</font> and everything beneath that, as well as some other directories such as <font color="green">~/.fonts</font>
137
Otherwise, you don't really need anything in this file. In fact, it is
138
not necessary to have this file because Xorg will read your <font color="green">~/.fonts</font> file if you have one. Note that <font color="green">/etc/fonts/local.conf</font>
139
is an xml markup file that can be edited easier with a file editor that
140
supports xml syntax highlighting; such as gedit. Included in this
141
example are many options you may want to take advantage of. Your file
142
may look similar to the one below:

224
<p>Looking at the above file, the sub-pixel rendering option is
225
commented out because it is only useful for LCD panels. When enabled on
226
a CRT display it only causes Xorg to do more rendering work. Possible
227
values are <b>"none"</b>, <b>"rgb"</b>, <b>"bgr"</b>, <b>"vrgb"</b> and <b>"vbgr"</b> for the sub-pixel rendering type. The most common type of LCD panel is the <b>"rgb"</b> type.
228
</p><p>You will almost certainly want to use the Autohinter in any
229
case, and is defaulted on in the example configuration file. However,
230
when using autohinting you will also most likely want to disable
231
autohinting on bold fonts to prevent bold fonts from appearing too
232
wide. The example file defaults autohinting on bold fonts to be off.
233
</p><p>The second to the last option is also commented out because
234
some people prefer to exclude or include a set of font sizes from
235
getting anti-aliasing applied to them. It is a common tweak that makes
236
your fonts looks much more like the Windows® default fonts. When
237
disabling anti-aliasing make sure to also disable sub-pixel rendering
238
to achieve the best non anti-aliased fonts.
239
</p><p>Finally, the last option having to do with pixel-based font
240
sizes... Please read comment file until somebody properly comments
242
</p><p>The last line is an example of user fonts in a different directory than the default <font color="green">/usr/share/fonts/</font>. You do not need this line and probably can delete it.
243
</p><p>Remember that all changes to this file are system wide and will be overridden by <font color="green">~/.fonts</font>, except for the anti-aliasing setting which will be forced on if set here. Also note that the syntax of <font color="green">/etc/fonts/local.conf</font> is exactly the same as the local user font configuration file <font color="green">~/.fonts</font> and therefore you may copy one file and rename it as another.
245
<div class="editsection" style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;">[<a href="http://gentoo-wiki.com/index.php?title=HOWTO_Xorg_and_Fonts&action=edit&section=5" title="HOWTO Xorg and Fonts">edit</a>]</div><a name=".2Fetc.2FX11.2Fxorg.conf"></a><h3>/etc/X11/xorg.conf</h3>
246
<p>When configuring X it is important to make sure that it has the
247
correct understanding of the size of your screen, make also sure that
248
youre running lcds at their native resolution, which is used to
249
calculate the horizontal and vertical pitch (DPI) of the screen - fonts
250
in GTK+ apps seem to get especially uglified by bad screen info.
251
Setting the width and height of the screen (in millimeters) using the
252
following directive: <b>DisplaySize <width> <height></b> in the Monitor section of <font color="green">/etc/X11/xorg.conf</font> solves this.
254
<table style="border: 1px solid rgb(255, 191, 191); background-color: rgb(255, 242, 242);" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="75%">
256
<td style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(136, 136, 136); background-color: rgb(255, 175, 175);"> <font size="-1"><b>File:</b> /etc/X11/xorg.conf</font>
260
<pre>Section "Monitor"
261
Identifier "Monitor0"
267
</td></tr></tbody></table>
268
<p>The values for DisplaySize can be calculated with the formula 25.4 *
269
width / dpi or respectively 25.4 * height / dpi, 25.4mm being 1 inch.
270
E.g. to use a dpi of 75 with a resolution of 1600x1200, the calculation
271
would be 25.4 * 1600 / 75 = 542 and 25.4 * 1200 / 75 = 406, resulting
272
in the setting DisplaySize 542 406.
273
</p><p>Another way to get the values is to ask X server to calculate it for you.
274
Run it using "<b>startx -- -dpi 96</b>" command, where <b>96</b> is required value for dpi and check the dimension:
276
<pre> xdpyinfo | grep dimension
277
dimensions: 1400x1050 pixels (<b>XXX</b>x<b>YYY</b> millimeters)
279
<p>Use these XXX and YYY values for DisplaySize parameter.
280
</p><p>i810 notebook users(samsung x20):
281
Use 855resolution to get 1400x1050, most probably x wont start or the
282
driver will use the next lower resolution if youre just setting the
283
xorg.conf to 1400x1050 without using the tool. Which looks like the
284
font is blurred on every second line while reading this at tiny font
285
sizes, couldn't see a difference @16+.
286
Please add if this is also true for chips on normal motherboards.
287
</p><p>IF you are using nvidia's Drivers, a better way to do this
288
would be to add this in your device section. This works alot better
289
with dual monitors also:

<p>Next we have to list our font directories in <font color="green">/etc/X11/xorg.conf</font>. The font paths are searched in the order they are listed, so before we're done we'll tweak that order a bit.
304
</p><p>Reasonably modern applications and DE's such as Gnome and KDE
305
use fontconfig so the only fonts that are actually required via the X
306
server (or font server) is <i>fixed</i> and <i>cursor</i>.
308
<pre>/usr/share/fonts/misc:unscaled
310
<p>The first path we want on our list is /usr/share/fonts/misc. This is where the all-important <i>fixed</i> and <i>cursor</i>
311
fonts are kept. These are crucial for the proper operation of Xorg.
312
This is where the default cursor is located, and putting it first in
313
the path keeps X from using the custom cursors that some font packages
315
</p><p>The :unscaled option tells X to use the unscaled versions
316
of these fonts whenever possible to prevent pixelation. This can apply
319
<pre>/usr/share/fonts/75dpi:unscaled
320
/usr/share/fonts/100dpi:unscaled
322
<p>These are the base bitmap fonts. We usually want 75dpi to be loaded
323
before 100dpi since a lot of themes expect it. Most modern monitors
324
will have a high dpi however, so if you find yourself squinting to read
325
menus, you might want to experiment switching the order. </p>
326
<pre>/usr/share/fonts/Type1
329

be notable that both of these packages contain the Luxi Sans/Serif/Mono

/usr/share/fonts/freefont

TrueType fonts and a collection of free Type1 Fonts, respectively.

/usr/share/fonts/unifont
345
<p>if you emerged the packages suggested above you should also have this list of fonts.
347
<pre>/usr/share/fonts/local
348
/usr/share/fonts/cyrillic
350
<p>These are usually not needed, and are mostly empty or non-existent.
351
To be sure check the file fonts.dir inside each directory. If this file
353
directory does not need to be added to the font path.
355
<pre>/usr/share/fonts/*everythingelse*
357
<p>All the directories of the new fonts you just emerged. The order
358
shouldn't matter as most of the fonts these packages provide are
359
unique. If you're worried about a particular font, place it higher up.
360
You can check a list of what fonts are provided in each directory's
362
</p><p>Now to make a few final changes to the order. Take the base
363
bitmap fonts and put them last. This is because we now have much better
364
TTF or Type1 versions of some of these fonts we'd rather use. Also,
365
corefonts contains a lot of.. um.. core fonts and should be pretty high
367

477
<p>Looking at the above file, the sub-pixel rendering option is
478
commented out because it is only useful for LCD panels. When enabled on
479
a CRT display it only causes Xorg to do more rendering work. Possible
480
values are <b>"none"</b>, <b>"rgb"</b>, <b>"bgr"</b>, <b>"vrgb"</b> and <b>"vbgr"</b> for the sub-pixel rendering type. The most common type of LCD panel is the <b>"rgb"</b> type.
482
You will almost certainly want to use the Autohinter in any case, and
483
is defaulted on in the example configuration file. However, when using
484
autohinting you will also most likely want to disable autohinting on
485
bold fonts to prevent bold fonts from appearing too wide. The example
486
file defaults autohinting on bold fonts to be off.
487
</p><p><br>The last option is also commented out because some people
488
prefer to exclude or include a set of font sizes from getting
489
anti-aliasing applied to them. It is a common tweak that makes your
490
fonts looks much more like the Windows® default fonts. When disabling
491
anti-aliasing make sure to also disable sub-pixel rendering to achieve
492
the best non anti-aliased fonts. The example will disable anti-aliasing
493
on fonts sizes 9 through 14 if uncommented.

<p>After modifying config files, you have to restart <b>X.org</b>. If

you use a graphical greeter such as GDM, KDM, XDM, etc., you may be

able to simply log out of your session and restart X by pressing <b>Ctrl+Alt+Backspace</b> at the login screen. If that doesn't do it, restarting X.org is possible by restarting the <b>xdm</b> service).
504
</p><p>Someone could notice a system freeze by launching the following

commands in X.org, so I advise to launch them in another terminal, that
506
is press <b>CTRL + ALT + F1</b> and log in.
507
(Pressing <b>ALT + F7</b> will return you to X from the console.)
509
