Basic knowledge

Sans-serif = inlined body =: it is not a specific font, but a kind of font. Selecting it is actually the same as selecting the font with the highest priority among these fonts.

Serif = lined body = white body: Same as above

Monospace = Equal-width font, meaning the same character width: Same as above

Dot Matrix font = bitmap font

The inlined body is more suitable for computer screen reading, and the inlined body is suitable for printing. -- The linefeed can align the line of sight. That is to say, it will not read the broken lines.

Chinese characters are displayed in different ways. On the one hand, Chinese characters are displayed horizontally and at the same height. Line spacing is more important for Chinese.

1. Install the font

Sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer # Microsoft Font
Sudo apt-get install xfonts-wqy # wenquanyi-
Cd ~
Wget http://www.stchman.com/tools/MS_fonts/tahoma.zip # Tahoma font
Sudo unzip-d/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts ~ /Tahoma.zip
Sudo fc-cache-f-v
Rm-f ~ /Tahoma.zip
Fc-cache-f-s-v # refresh the font cache

2. Go to "Advanced settings" settings (if not installed, run sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool)

The following settings:

3. Configuration:

Note: Use the visual habits tool of wenquanyi to clear the English and Chinese characters on the webpage. Click Create and save as instructed.

I am calling Tahoma first and wenquanyi bitmap second, so there is no problem in English and Chinese.

Font File Storage path

/Usr/share/fonts/# system font, which requires root permission.

~ /. Fonts # user font. Recommended

Fc-match sans-serif # capture the font with the highest priority of the sans-serif font of the current user

Fc-match serif # capture the font with the highest priority of the current user's serif class.

Fc-match monospace # capture the fonts with the highest priority of the current user's monospace Fonts

4. The configuration in the previous step is invalid for Firefox and Thunderbird, and then ~ /. Fonts. conf. Add the following to <fontconfig>:

<Match target = "font">
<Edit mode = "assign" name = "autohint">
<Bool> false </bool>
</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> false </bool>
</Edit>
</Match>
<! -- Enable anti-aliasing when using a large font -->
<Match target = "font">
<Test name = "size" qual = "any" compare = "more">
<Double> 12 </double>
</Test>
<Edit name = "antialias" mode = "assign">
<Bool> true </bool>
</Edit>
</Match>
<Match target = "font">
<Test name = "pixelsize" qual = "any" compare = "more">
<Double> 16 </double>
</Test>
<Edit name = "antialias" mode = "assign">
<Bool> true </bool>
</Edit>
</Match>
