Remick" Subject: XFree86, Anti-aliasing, Truetype, Freetype To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm close but not quite there yet, so I need some more help... FreeBSD 4.7-REL, Xfree86 4.2.0, Enlightenment 0.16.5, OpenOffice 1.0.1, recent Mozilla nightly, Freetype 1.3.1, Freetype2 2.1.2 I have Truetype fonts working, and they're even anti-aliased in OO, but they look like crap (certainly not like on a Windoze system). My TTF fonts are in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF but I can only get them to appear if I have the following line in XF86Config: FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF" According to the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-fonts.html#ANTIALIAS ...I should be able to comment out this line if I have the following line in XftConfig: dir "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF" But TrueType fonts don't appear if I do. So I'm thinking maybe my bad anti-aliasing is a result of something wrong here? I don't get anti-aliasing at all in Mozilla, but that's probably a whole 'nother problem... ===== Scott I.
