arguments depend on the platform you use and on graphics card

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