Ubuntu font settings: Using Windows fonts

Basic knowledge

sans-serif= non-liner BODY = Blackbody: Not a specific font, but a type of font, select it is actually equal to choose the type of font in the highest priority font.

Serif= Liner BODY = White body: Ibid.

Monospace=, meaning the same width of the characters: ibid.

Dot Matrix font = bitmap font

Sans serif body is more suitable for computer screen reading, liner body suitable for printing. --because the liner can make the line of sight flat Zieux one line. That means it won't lip the line.

Chinese display in different ways, on the one hand because the Chinese itself has the horizontal and the same height can lead to this level. Line spacing is more important for Chinese.

1. Install fonts

sudo apt-get install Ttf-mscorefonts-installer #微软字体
sudo apt-get install xfonts-wqy #文泉驿-lattice Arial
CD ~
wget http://www.stchman.com/tools/MS_fonts/tahoma.zip #Tahoma Fonts
sudo unzip-d/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts ~/tahoma.zip
sudo fc-cache-f-V
Rm-f ~/tahoma.zip
Fc-cache-f-s-v #刷新字体缓存

2. Enter "Advanced Settings" setting (if not installed, execute sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool)

The following settings:

3. Configuration:

Pay attention to using Wenquanyi Zen Hei's visual habits tool to adjust the English and Chinese fonts on the page clearly, click Create, Save as described.

I tune is Tahoma first, Wenquanyi bitmap second, so English and Chinese are no problem.

Linux fonts

Font file storage Path

/usr/share/fonts/#系统字体, requires root permission to operate

~/.fonts #用户字体, whatever the hell, recommend

Configuration file path

/etc/fonts/fonts.conf #系统配置文件 requires root permission to operate and is valid for programs that require a root password

~/.fonts.conf #用户配置文件, whatever. Valid only for programs that are running on the current user

Command

FC-CACHE-FV #通常复制字体进 ~/.fonts will automatically refresh the font, if not, with this command, if copied into the/usr/share/fonts/, with sudo fc-cache-fv

Fc-match Sans-serif #抓取当前用户sans The font with the highest priority for the-serif class

Fc-match Serif #抓取当前用户serif类字体优先级最高的那款字体

Fc-match monospace #抓取当前用户monospace类字体优先级最高的那款字体

4. Previous configuration is not valid for Firefox and Thunderbird, then set ~/.fonts.conf, add in <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" >

</match>
<match target= "Font" >
<edit mode= "Assign" Name= "AntiAlias" >
<bool>false</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<!--Large fonts enable antialiasing--
<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" >

</test>
<edit name= "AntiAlias" mode= "Assign" >
