Binary package hint: xfce4-settings
When setting fonts via the XFCE settings dialog, e.g. to a different font and different hinting or aliasing, the fonts in other applications remain different, sometimes with different font sizes, types, or hinting.
This affects applications like Firefox, Chrome or Skype. I've had this problem since years and still need to hack into different font configuration files (Xresources, mozilla chrome-css, xsettings, etc...). Gnome and KDE usually have solved this issue already.
Thanks for any help. |

This affects applications like Firefox, Chrome or Skype. I've had this problem since years and still need to hack into different font configuration files (Xresources, mozilla chrome-css, xsettings, etc...).
Here are the steps that I took to achieve the screenshot below:
1. Do a fresh install of Xubuntu Maveric (but I have encountered this behaviour also with Karmic and Lucid).
2. Open up Xfce settings and set the font to full hinting, disable font aliasing. (Not really needed: install and select Arial)
3. Launch Firefox, Chrome, Skype.
The screenshot has been made with Maveric Alpha development branch and xfce-settings version 4.6.5-2.
However, I have seen this in different Xfce and Ubuntu versions and numerous posts on the internet seem to confirm that this is a common issue.
Thanks a lot for any help.
