Now I see what you mean.

I add a ~/.fonts folder so that I can easily add/remove fonts. It's particularly helpful when testing fonts. Note that it's user specific & not system-wide (i.e., available across multiple user accounts) as the fonts do not get installed into /usr/share. If I like the font then I will go ahead and install system-wide. > >>When you tried the >> 'Tools|Options|LibreOffice|View|uncheck 'Screen font antialiasing' did >> the screen Graphite fonts change in LO? > > Yes it did change.

Note that I set the font size at 20 so that I could easily see the difference. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
