On a fresh installation, I have just removed the /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-antialias.conf file and the font appearance in gnome-terminal behaves correctly (hinting and antialiasing ) In fact, the smoothing on small fonts is the main reason that hurts my eyes. After deeper testing, I notice that the hinting setting in "System -> Appearance Preferences -> Details" does not affect the gnome-terminal. So I suggest as other persons to remove all 10-* in /etc/fonts/conf.d
$ cd /etc/fonts/conf.d $ sudo rm 10-* I made my testing using the msttfonts (Verdana and Courrier New) and liberation fonts (Sans and Mono) size 10 System -> Appearance Preferences -> Rendering = Monochrome System -> Appearance Preferences -> Details -> Resolution = 96dpi System -> Appearance Preferences -> Details -> Smoothing = None System -> Appearance Preferences -> Details -> Hinting = Full System -> Appearance Preferences -> Details -> SubPixelOrder = RGB ( not use because Smoothing is None ) See the result in attachment. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/22657165/Screenshot.png -- font in terminal does not resemble font in preview https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190848 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
