<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The problem is that <FONT size=3
face="Times New Roman">DejaVu Sans Mono is only readable if you have a super
high-resolution screen and/or ClearType or some font smoothing enabled, neither
of which I have or want or should be necessary to view text. I now have it
working with Courier, and it's not smoothing everything anymore
thankfully, but I would like to be able to change to something nicer like
Fixedsys perhaps!</FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>So I'm assuming GEM is the main window that opens
when you normally open Pd?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I tried typing "-font-size 24" into the text box
labelled "Tcl" and it replied with:</FONT></DIV>

class=gmail_quote>Hello,<BR><BR>I am new to Pure Data, and am having
trouble with text display. The default<BR>display settings are a very
small font size and font smoothing is not<BR>handled properly, so if I
have my system settings using the "standard" font<BR>smoothing method,
which is to use normal greyscale smoothing at large point<BR>sizes,
then this is not respected. From some research and messing around,
I<BR>have found that the default font is DejaVu sans, which is
illegible at small<BR>sizes and not nice looking or readable unless
scaled to 24 point, so I<BR>deleted it from my computer and it's now
falling back to Courier thank<BR>goodness.<BR><BR>I saw there are some
font-related command-line options since there is only a<BR>menu for
font size. I have no idea how to run these however. I am running
Pd<BR>on Microsoft Windows.<BR><BR>In the mean time, I have font
smoothing completely disabled system wide, but<BR>I'd like to turn the
standard font smoothing back on again because it is<BR>really
essential for a lot of Web sites using nonstandard fonts these
days.<BR><BR>Using Pd-Extended (since it doesn't bold the font
automatically unlike<BR>vanilla Pd) I'd like to change the font to
something nice and readable like<BR>Fixedsys!<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR>
