Matt & Vince, Mine is also Linux PI3BUSB 4.14.79-v7+ #1159 SMP Sun Nov 4 17:50:20 GMT 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux
Of course I used the lite because it was headless. Since this is a 3B+ I flashed the image (using Etcher) onto a SanDisk 32G UltraFit USB (wanted to see if I could get a weewx Pi that stays up for years like Tom's but by using USB vice SD) but I don't think that made a diff. [2018-11-13-raspbian-stretch-lite.img] Maybe I'll ask on Pi forum. Okay so we can mark this [solved]! (but I see there's no way to do so, or edit Subj, on google forums?) Thanks all. --Phil On Saturday, January 19, 2019 at 6:10:08 PM UTC-6, mwall wrote: > > On Saturday, January 19, 2019 at 1:26:46 PM UTC-5, Messy Potamia wrote: >> >> >> I ftp'd the /usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/ directory from the jessie >> lite to the stretch lite, reloaded, and now they're as expected. >> > > at some point you probably installed fonts using apt-get - on debian > systems, /usr/share/fonts is where system-installed fonts end up. > > if you want to future-proof your skins and make them independent of the > operating system on which you are running, then create a 'fonts' directory > in the 'skins' tree, and keep your fonts there. then refer to the fonts > specifically in your skin.conf or weewx.conf. > > for an example, take a look at the Seasons skin in the soon-to-be-released > weewx 3.9: > > https://github.com/weewx/weewx/tree/development/skins/Seasons > > you can see the actual fonts in the 'font' directory: > > https://github.com/weewx/weewx/tree/development/skins/Seasons/font > > notice that there are truetype fonts for the images, and webfonts for the > html pages. > > the tt fonts are referred to in the ImageGenerator section of skin.conf: > > https://github.com/weewx/weewx/blob/development/skins/Seasons/skin.conf > > the web fonts are specified once in the @font-face section of the skin's > css file: > > https://github.com/weewx/weewx/blob/development/skins/Seasons/seasons.css > > hope that helps! > > m > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
