Does this effect also occur with other fonts? The problem may be the following: The Monaco font that I was able to get my hands on simply does not have a bold variant. That would mean the bold must be faked, and different renderers seem to come to quite different results.

Have you tried playing with the profile options in terminator? I just had a look and found an option for "Anti-alias text". Maybe you could try that and see if it makes the font look as you expect it to look.

How to specify a bold font in VS Code's settings.json? For example, I have Envy Code R and Envy Code R Bold (exact names shown in windows' font viewer) installed on my windows machine, and while

in a file that is read by xrdb. The problem is that this only works for certain fonts (for example: DejaVu Sans Mono, Consolas). A lot of fonts will just show up with normal weight (such as Monaco, Mensch, Andale mono).

then none of the text will be bold. It's as if the font has no style called "bold", even though any font selection dialog says otherwise. The fact that some of the text shows up as bold with boldFont is unspecified tells me that rxvt-unicode is capable of displaying bolded versions of these fonts.

I tried using these fonts in konsole and xfce4-terminal. Konsole doesn't even offer Monaco as a possible font (it doesn't think it's a monospace font, but this is a known bug), and Mensch is only available in Regular and Oblique styles. In xfce4-terminal, both Mensch and Monaco are available in Bold.

Onto second part of you question. If the font you specify doesn't have a bold version, the terminal will make it itself. I don't know the exact algorithm but looks like it just prints same glyph twice with one pixel displacement. But if you specify bold font too the terminal won't attempt making bold font and all the text will look the same.

I've been trying to change the editor font weight into bold in Arduino IDE but to no avail. I've successfully changed the font face and size, but never the weight. What did I do wrong?

I tried bold with uppercase Bold and lowercase bold but I still haven't gotten it to work at all. Does anyone have any idea how to make the editor texts bold? My eyes get tired easily when I try to read thin texts especially in computer screens so I really want to make it bold .. I could go for a more advanced editor like platformio on vscode but I'm really fond of simplicity so I still opt for Arduino IDE. any help would be appreciated...

Another solution would be to use an external text editor to edit your code but continue using the Arduino IDE to do compilations and uploads. That adds a bit of complexity but not so much as switching to PlatformIO. There is an option in the Arduino IDE: File > Preferences > Use External Editor which disables editing in the Arduino IDE so you can use any text editor you like to edit the sketches.

Thanks for all the answers.

So I guess I'll just have to find heavier fonts as switching between the IDE and an external editor is still too much of a hassle for me. Do you have any suggestions? I'm placing my bet on Fira Code as it's a little bit thicker than any of the fonts that I've found.

This is not how ligatures were intended to be used. They were intended for correcting oddities when two characters were connected to each other, to make stylistic improvements. This is an abuse of capabilities of fonts for a very different purpose.

I just bought a new laptop after 3 years so it\u2019s time to fiddle with settings. One of the most important questions for a coder like me is what font to use for programming. I\u2019ve been using the Fira Code font for several years and maybe it\u2019s time for a change. There\u2019s a nice website programmingfonts.org that lists fonts designed for writing code, but it\u2019s mostly browsing things for aesthetics, not issues.

There\u2019s a whole lot going on between these pictures. As for the O0 issue, you see that it puts a slash through the digit 0, which has been used for decades by programmers to differentiate the digit. We also see the stick characters much better differentiated.

Stylistically, it gets rid of all the unnecessary serifs of the typewriter font, it\u2019s not only monospace but also san serif. It still adds some serifs to the letters i and l, but that\u2019s necessary to fill out the space, so that these characters that a letter like \u2018l\u2019 and \u2018m\u2019 take the same width.

It also handles the extremely rare issue of \u201Cdb qp\u201D differentiation. These are letters commonly switched by dyslexics. Therefore, new font designers make sure that they are not mirror images of each other. If you look closely at the Monaco font, you\u2019ll see that they are not mirror images.

This is a similar sans serif, monospace font like Monaco. The major difference is the ligature that combine two adjacent characters together. Whereas the code represents an arrow as the two letter combination, the ligature shows a single double-width arrow character. Likewise, where as the code represents the \u201Cnot equals\u201D as the two characters !=, the ligature combines them into a mathematical \u201Cnot equals\u201D that\u2019s double-wide. The replacements still fit in the same space, but look different.

A further feature of fonts is syntax highlighting. This is often handled by simply changing the color of the font, as in the above example. But other options can be used. In the following example, the \u201Cstring\u201D has been reconfigured to be bold:

They\u2019ve been gradually extending the font rendering capabilities of operating systems (Windows, macOS, and Linux) and browsers. They\u2019ve gotten pretty crazy. The latest hotness in coding fonts is one called Monaspace (spelled slightly different from monospace).

And I don\u2019t understand why. When you select a font for XCode, it allows selection of typographic features like this. Fonts list such custom features so they can be turned on/off when selecting a font. The plumbing is there in the operating-system fond-rendering capability, it\u2019s just that XCode isn\u2019t using it. (I have the same problem with the Terminal fonts).

After my search, I\u2019ve decided that I\u2019m going to stick with Fira Code right now, for the ligatures, but use Monaspace for the Visual Code editor (and anywhere else I can get it to work), because I like to geek out on such font features.

Fontconfig is a library designed to provide a list of available fonts to applications, as well as configuration for how fonts get rendered. The FreeType library renders fonts based on this configuration. The freetype2 font rendering package includes the bytecode interpreter (BCI) enabled for better font rendering, especially with an LCD monitor. See #Fontconfig configuration and Font configuration/Examples.

Fontconfig gathers all its configurations in a central file (/etc/fonts/fonts.conf). This file is replaced during fontconfig updates and should not be edited. Fontconfig-aware applications source this file to know available fonts and how they get rendered; simply restarting such applications is sufficient to load the new configuration. This file is a conglomeration of rules from the global configuration (/etc/fonts/local.conf), the configured presets in /etc/fonts/conf.d/, and the user configuration file ($XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fontconfig/fonts.conf). fc-cache can be used to rebuild fontconfig's configuration, although changes will only be visible in newly launched applications.

There are presets installed in the directory /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail. They can be enabled by creating symbolic links to them, both per-user and globally, as described in /etc/fonts/conf.d/README. These presets will override matching settings in their respective configuration files.

Font rasterization converts vector font data to bitmap data so that it can be displayed. The result can appear jagged due to aliasing. Anti-aliasing can be used to increase the apparent resolution of font edges. Anti-aliasing is enabled by default. To disable it:

Font hinting (also known as instructing) is the use of mathematical instructions to adjust the display of an outline font so that it lines up with a rasterized grid (i.e. the pixel grid of the display). Its intended effect is to make fonts appear more crisp so that they are more readable. Fonts will line up correctly without hinting when displays have around 300 DPI.

Using BCI hinting, instructions in TrueType fonts are rendered according to FreeTypes's interpreter. BCI hinting works well with fonts with good hinting instructions. Hinting is enabled by default. To disable it:

The autohinter attempts to do automatic hinting, disregarding any hinting information embedded in the font. Originally, it was the default because TrueType2 fonts were patent-protected, but now that these patents have expired, there is very little reason to use it. It does work better with fonts that have broken or no hinting information, but it will be strongly sub-optimal for fonts with good hinting information. Generally, common fonts are of the latter kind, so the autohinter will not be useful. The autohinter is disabled by default. To enable it:

Hintstyle is the amount of font reshaping done to line up to the grid. Hinting values are: hintnone, hintslight, hintmedium, and hintfull. hintslight will make the font more fuzzy to line up to the grid but will be better in retaining font shape (see [2]), while hintfull will be a crisp font that aligns well to the pixel grid but will lose a greater amount of font shape. hintslight implicitly uses the autohinter in a vertical-only mode in favor of font-native information for non-CFF (.otf) fonts. 152ee80cbc
