Hello Akira, Thank you for replying. >> But poppler also sends the hint to fontconfig that it wants a >> monospaced font ("$ fc-match RFont3:spacing=mono"). >> Shouldn't fontconfig use that hint and return a monospaced font? > > In theory, yes. We may need similar things for :spacing=charcell and > :spacing=dual too. Should that be solved with a configuration file like the following (that is shipped by default with fontconfig), or should that be handled internally somehow? ---- <?xml version='1.0'?> <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'> <fontconfig> <match target="pattern"> <test name="spacing"> <int>100</int> </test> <edit name="family" mode="prepend"> <string>monospace</string> </edit> </match> </fontconfig> ---- -- Regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen Christian Weiske -=≡ Geeking around in the name of science since 1982 ≡=-
