Public bug reported: Xubuntu 14.04
In Ubuntu, Settings - Appearance - Fonts the user is able to change these fonts: Application Font Document font Desktop font Window title font Fixed width font Older, pre-Unity instructions with screenshots: http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/how-to-change-fonts-in-ubuntu-linux/ Modern instructions with Unity & non-Unity instructions & screenshots: http://askubuntu.com/questions/19770/how-do-i-change-fonts-and-adjust-their-size In Xubuntu, the only font that can be changed is "Default Font". I had expected all the font types that are available in Ubuntu. The removal of the full font config options prevents the user from changing the system fixed-width font, and others. As a result, if the user wishes to set the fixed-width font in software (such as Chrome, Gedit, terminator etc) they have to set it per-application, which is tedious. When searching for how to set the default fixed-width font on Xubuntu, I came across this thread, indicating I'm not the only one who has been puzzled by the removal of these options in the Fonts settings UI: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2172207 Please restore the full list of font types that can be customized to the UI.
