[gentoo-user] gtk2 and fonts

2003-10-21 Thread Andrew Kirilenko
Hello!

I have got following problem. After some update (not gtk2 or xfree or
other font-related) and rebooting I have got very small (something like
10pt instead of 12) fonts in all gtk2 apps (I don't have any other gui
apps, so I can't tell nothing about them). After running fc-cache -f`
and `/etc/init.d/xfs restart` and restarting X everything was OK. Today
I have got the same problem and cn't solve it :( any suggestions?

Best regards,
Andrew.

I had a similar problem, although my fonts were appearing about twice as
large as they should have been.

A couple of things:

1. in gnome, try gnome-font-properties. There's a setting for
application font faces and sizes, as well as a font DPI setting (look
under details).

2. after doing this I still had problems with non-gnome apps and font
sizes. Try creating a .Xresources file in your home directory. Put this
line:

Xft.dpi: X

Where X is something that works for you. For whatever reason, I need to
use 75 to get fonts that aren't twice as big as they ought to be. On my
old redhat system, I used 96. Go figure. .Xresources should get merged
next time you startx.

hth,

eric heller

I'm not using gnome. But you are right - the problem is with DPY (see my
reply to another thread)... Thanks.

Best regards,
Andrew.
