Yes, that looks much better now -- aspect ratios of 1.2 still snap glyphs to the pixel grid to make them appear sharper when hinting is enabled. With current CVS, you can edit .fonts.conf to include: <!-- set default aspect ratio for fonts not specifying one --> <match target="font"> <test qual="all" name="aspect" compare="eq"> <double>0</double> </test> <edit name="aspect" mode="assign"> <double>1</double> </edit> </match> <!-- double the aspect ratio to make fonts twice as wide --> <match target="font"> <edit name="aspect" mode="assign"> <times> <name>aspect</name> <double>2</double> </times> </edit> </match> And, you can specify the aspect ratio in a font name: $ xclock -digital -render -fa 'times:aspect=4' These effects are cumulative; with both in place, the font will be displayed 8 times as wide as normal.
