Just execute the below:</p> <p> </p> <pre class="brush:shell">sudo ln -s /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-autohint.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-autohint.conf </pre> <p>After this you should see the font hinting enabled and thus better experience with fonts.</p> /2010/06/25/6700-free-and-redistributable-fonts-for-linux/ Fri, 25 Jun 2010 11:47:19 +0000 /2010/06/25/6700-free-and-redistributable-fonts-for-linux/ <!--[ad#ad-2]--> <p>Today I was searching for some good fonts for my desktop running Fedora 11 – Leonidas. In my quest to find the required fonts that I would liked, I reached some good sites so just thought would share the same with you.</p> <p>First, how do you use them, simple steps:</p> <blockquote> <p>mkdir ~/.fonts</p> </blockquote> <p>Now you can put your fonts in this directory. You can make sub-directories to keep your fonts organized. On F11, I did not need to refresh the font server or logout and login. 🙂</p>
