Public bug reported: Georgewilliams has a font named "Monospace." This overrides the monospace virtual font that is used in a number of places in the desktop, including in gnome-terminal, gedit, and firefox. Worse, the georgewilliams monospace font is somewhat ugly (it doesn't seem to work well with subpixel font rendering, leaving very colorful boundaries and hard-to-read text).
Is it possible to rename the font so that this doesn't happen? I'd like to have the ttf-georgewilliams fonts installed, but I don't want to have to change all the font settings in my apps to use DejaVu Sans Mono or Bitstream Vera Sans Mono. ** Affects: gw-fonts-ttf (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Affects: gw-fonts-ttf (Debian) Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #395487 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=395487 ** Also affects: gw-fonts-ttf (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=395487 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- georgewilliams "Monospace" font takes over the fontconfig/pango monospace virtual font https://launchpad.net/bugs/95357 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
