Hello,
i now found out where my "ugly" fonts in firefox comes for some pages.
one page had this defined in css font:11px verdana,geneva,lucida,'lucida grande',arial,helvetica,sans-serif;
and busybox.net has: font-family:lucida,helvetica,arial;
and both make firefox to use bitmap fonts from the packages xorg-fonts-75dpi xorg-fonts-100dpi
removing those packages (and having like ttf-dejavu installed) i havent found any webpage that would get any bitmap fonts assigned anymore.
so, anyone know how/what decides which fonts firefox gets ? (i have all i can set in firefox settings to dejavu)
and on same note, what packages even need xorg-fonts-100dpi and xorg-fonts-75dpi ? cant we replace those with ttf-dejavu in the xorg package ?
cheers .andre
ps. no, the solution is _not_ to install ms-fonts :P
Install liberation-ttf they're drop in replacements for the ms-fonts and are fully free.
nope, having ttf-liberation and xorg-fonts-75dpi and xorg-fonts-100dpi installed at the same time still makes firefox render bitmap fonts...
