Package: konsole Version: 4:20.12.3-1 Severity: normal Tags: a11y X-Debbugs-Cc: t...@seoss.co.uk
When selecting a bitmap font via Konsole -> Settings -> Configure Konsole -> Profiles -> Edit -> Appearance -> Font -> Choose, only the smallest font size is displayed for OpenType bitmap fonts. e.g. Install the fonts-terminus-otb package, and run the command: fc-query /usr/share/fonts/opentype/terminus/terminus-normal.otb The following is amongst the report: pixelsize: 12(f)(s) 14(f)(s) 16(f)(s) 18(f)(s) 20(f)(s) 22(f)(s) 24(f)(s) 28(f)(s) 32(f)(s) Terminus is selectable in the list of fonts via the Konsole profile editor, but only the smallest pixelsize (12) is listed as a selectable option. Workaround: Open the font file with fontforge, import only the desired size (e.g. 32), rename the font in Menu -> Element -> Font Info (e.g. "Terminus" to "Terminus32", then export as an OpenType bitmap font (File -> Generate Fonts -> "X11 bitmap only sftnt (otb)" -> Generate. Import the saved font via KDE -> System Settings -> Font Management -> Install from File. Restart Konsole. The desired size is now selectable via the Konsole profile editor. Thanks! Tim. p.s. I've tagged this as a11y because I use bitmap fonts AND high dpi displays to avoid chronic eye strain (without which I am limited to about 30 minutes max screen time per day). Whilst I can use vector fonts (e.g. Hack), and also disable font smoothing in the Konsole settings, the resulting fonts look quite ugly, and aren't as easy to read. So, I think I consider this an a11y issue (albeit quite a niche one).
