How to Improve Font Rendering
Firefox
If the fonts appear blocky/pixelated changing a script will improve the rendering - this applies to Puppy526 Puppy 5.28.Edit the file /etc/fonts/PUPSTATE to include the following code
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <!-- /etc/fonts/local.conf file for local customizations --> <fontconfig> <!-- Enable sub-pixel rendering --> <match target="font"> <test qual="all" name="rgba"> <const>unknown</const> </test> <edit name="rgba" mode="assign"><const>rgb</const></edit> </match> <!-- suggested by 'upnorth' http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=54294&start=15 Reject bitmap fonts --> <selectfont> <rejectfont> <pattern> <patelt name="scalable"><bool>false</bool></patelt> </pattern> </rejectfont> </selectfont> </fontconfig>
Often this is just case of removing two comment tags (<-- -->)
