The end result is that many poorly designed websites no longer render well, with GUI options missing or unreadable because the text has scrolled off the side of the button. Why is is that even though I have msttcorefonts installed I cannot get Firefox on Linux to look as good? The default settings on Windows look nice and sharp, and quite readable with no tweaking. On the Linux side of things, not so much. I have even tried duplicating the exact settings I had on Windows but to no avail. Firefox on Ubuntu seems to look a bit better than FF on CentOS though. </pre> </blockquote> My fonts are quite sharp, but I tweaked things a bit. Not sure where I got this from, but it seems to work for me. Be sure to back up your .fonts.config file first, just on case. Make a new text file in your home folder and name if .fonts.config two dots as it's a hidden file. Place this text in it. You'll probably have to log-out and -in again to make it work... ************************** <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <fontconfig> <match target="font" > <edit mode="assign" name="rgba" > <const>rgb</const> </edit> </match> <match target="font" > <edit mode="assign" name="hinting" > <bool>true</bool> </edit> </match> <match target="font" > <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" > <const>hintslight</const> </edit> </match> <match target="font" > <edit mode="assign" name="antialias" > <bool>true</bool> </edit> </match> </fontconfig> ************************** I hope this works for you... :@) <pre class="moz-signature" cols="72">-- Blessings Wulfmann Wulf Credo: Respect the elders.
