For Chinese users, the most important use of Linux as a desktop is the font and input method. Here I will introduce my settings.
The input method is used scim, there are many friends at the beginning may not be able to call the input method, this is because the local encoding settings are incorrect, set to UTF-8 is generally no problem. The font file in Windows contains simsun in the C:/Windows/fonts folder. the TTC file is named simsun under/usr/share/fonts/TrueType/freefont. TTF Here you can take a look at some TrueType fonts, but this font looks quite comfortable. Start a shell and run FC-Cache-FV. Edit/etc/fonts. conf
Add
<Match target = "font">
<Test name = "family"> <string> Vera sans yuanti </string> </test>
<Edit name = "globaladvance"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
</Match> <Match target = "font">
<Test name = "family"> <string> Vera sans yuanti mono </string> </test>
<Edit name = "globaladvance"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
</Match> <Match target = "font">
<Edit name = "antialias"> <bool> true </bool> </Edit>
<Edit name = "hinting"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
<Edit name = "autohint"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
</Match> <Match target = "font">
<Test name = "pixelsize" compare = "more_eq"> <double> 12 </Double> </test>
<Test name = "pixelsize" compare = "less_eq"> <double> 16 </Double> </test>
<Edit name = "antialias"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
<Edit name = "hinting"> <bool> true </bool> </Edit>
<Edit name = "autohint"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
</Match> In the future, the font will become as detailed as windows.
Add:
<Match target = "font">
<Test name = "family"> <string> Vera sans yuanti </string> </test>
<Edit name = "globaladvance"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
</Match> <Match target = "font">
<Test name = "family"> <string> Vera sans yuanti mono </string> </test>
<Edit name = "globaladvance"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
</Match> <Match target = "font">
<Edit name = "antialias"> <bool> true </bool> </Edit>
<Edit name = "hinting"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
<Edit name = "autohint"> <bool> false </bool> </Edit>
</Match>
It will make the font as crude as Mac OS. But do not add both. Through the above settings, we should say that the font is good. This article is just a reference for new users, so that friends can take less detours and avoid friends who want to use Linux from returning to Windows due to font problems. |
