Yes, the slash meant either/or. Xdefaults is the older way of doing it, I still prefer it. > Can I safely assume that if I change "Xft:dpi 96" to "Xft:dpi 48", my > fonts are going to get noticibly bigger if this thing's working? That > would be another test. This line is for your dpi settings. On a laptop that is often 96 like in my case. I would try your real dpi settings here, not anything else because that can screw with the monitor. To test your dpi settings from the command line: xdpyinfo | grep resolution That will give you the value you need. > Why did you set Xft:hintstyle to "hintlight" instead of "hintmassively" > or whatever the hintiest setting could be? I prefer it slight. Here you can test additionally with "hintfull" (very thin) and probably "hintmedium". I think the Arch Wiki has a nice entry about it: https://wiki.archlinux.de/title/Xdefaults In any case you could also apply one thing more that was mentioned here to make fonts even better. Making a .fonts.conf file in your home folder. I think at this point I link you to my fonts how-to for Debian (Openbox). http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=196047#p196047 Eventually I switched completely to Infinality and love it. http://www.infinality.net/blog/ -- David Dusanic -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
