While emacs23 does get font names from X resources, settings in fonts.conf which override the details for specific fonts should still work as expected. So, you should be able to add a file to /etc/fonts/conf.d which looks like /etc/fonts/conf.avail/20-fix-globaladvance.conf; eg something like: ,---- | <?xml version="1.0"?> | <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> | <fontconfig> | <match target="font"> | <test name="family"><string>Monaco</string></test> | <edit name="globaladvance"><bool>false</bool></edit> | </match> | </fontconfig> `---- Or you can add that <match/> clause to your ~/.fonts.conf. If you prefer to do it via the X Resource, add :globaladcance=false to the font specification. Eg something like: ,---- | emacs*FontBackend: xft | emacs.font: Monaco:globaladvance=false:pixelsize=16 `---- (I use :pixelsize rather than specifying a point size for Emacs and terminals so that I can be sure how many rows and columns to expect when maximized....) -JimC -- James Cloos <cloos@xxxxxxxxxxx> OpenPGP: 1024D/ED7DAEA6 _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
