 Posted: Sat Jul 20, 2024 2:00 pm Post subject: urxvt ugly font rendering with some languages |
 |
|
Hello,
With xfce4-terminal & DejaVu Sans Mono, fonts looks great but not with urxvt.
The fonts are really badly rendered with some languages (korean, japanese, chinese, thai, hebrew)
Example currently with Korean (worse with Japanese and complex kanji, unless I raise the pixelsize, which is not really practical with the 1280x800 display) & ncmpcpp (music player)
https://img98.pixhost.to/images/292/495938373_ncmpcpp.png
~/.Xresources
| Code: | URxvt.font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=16
URxvt.boldFont: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:bold:pixelsize=16
!URxvt.font: xft:Monospace:pixelsize=16
!URxvt.boldFont: xft:Monospace:bold:pixelsize=16 |
I also tried with Monospace by the way but it is also bad.
I know the DejaVu Sans Mono font is good since the font are correctly rendered with the tint2 panel or with file manager (spacefm or thunar), or other terms like xterm.
| Code: | | Installed versions: 9.31-r3(11:38:16 29/06/2024)(256-color blink fading-colors font-styles gdk-pixbuf mousewheel perl startup-notification xft -24-bit-color -iso14755 -unicode3 -wide-glyphs) |
Any tip ? Thanks

When I used to run X and urxvt
| Code: | urxvt*font: xft:dejavusansmono:size=14,\
xft:dejavusansmono:style=Bold:size=14,\
[codeset=JISX0208]xft:Kochi Gothic:antialias=false,\
xft:Code2000:antialias=false |

Thanks Anon-E-moose. I didn't know it was possible to adjust fonts depending on codeset. I don't have kochi font installed so i'll try later. (this is my laptop and I pull the packages from my desktop...)
Otherwise, with Monospace, plain xterm has no issue rendering those languages correctly.
| Code: | | xterm*faceName: Monospace:style=Regular |

You can also adjust antialias, which does sometimes cause problems.

So I tried with your config block (kochi) + also made a test with antialias for DejaVu Sans Mono, it doesn't improve much.
For example, with xfce4-terminal to see the difference : https://img98.pixhost.to/images/296/496035791_xfce_ncmpcpp.png
Also, my full .Xresources config, I have not modified it for years.
