- Mozilla 1.2.1 vs 1.5
- Posted by young_child on January 21st, 2004
Hi,
I was originally using Mozilla 1.2.1 pre-installed with RH9 during
installation. The chinese character in mozilla interface is smooth and nice.
However, when I installed mozilla 1.5 from the web with chinese
interface, the fonts are not smooth and they are ugly...
How can I set the font in moz 1.5 with the fonts used in moz 1.2.1?
Thanks for your help~~.

The tar.gz distribution from the mozilla web site don't have xft
support, so they don't support font anti-aliasing and the fonts don't look
very nice. You probably need RPM packages specifically for your
distribution, or at least that say they are compiled with Xft support.

In /usr/local/mozilla/defaults/pref/unix.js, check the following settings:
// TrueType
pref("font.FreeType2.enable", true);
pref("font.freetype2.shared-library", "libfreetype.so.6");
pref("font.FreeType2.autohinted", false);
pref("font.FreeType2.unhinted", false);
pref("font.directory.truetype.1", "/usr/share/fonts/truetype");
You may need to adjust the last one to reflect the proper path for your
system. You should be able to just copy the settings from the unix.js
that Red Hat installed.
