I have a question about configuring font sizes in TDE
Control Centre. I would expect that setting
a given font size under a given screen resolution will always produce the same rendering
result.
That however is not the case - see attached screenshots. These were taken on two
different
machines running a FHD resolution. As you can see font sizes are set to be identical on
both
system but the results of font rendering are totally different between the systems. I am
guessing
that this is because the rendering engine is trying to somehow compensate for different
physical
sizes of the actual screens (15,6" on the laptop vs. 24" on the desktop) but
the end result is
far from what I want. There's a setting to force a font DPI of either 96 or 120 and
the result is
that it indeed makes the font on the laptop much much smaller and seemingly consistent
with what
the desktop shows. I would, however, want things the other way around, i.e. set the
desktop to
the same rendering results as on the laptop. Any way I can set a DPI different than the
predefined options?

DPI is vally of tears.
You can set your preferred DPI value in ~/.trinity/share/config/kcmfonts: forceFontDPI=96
There's also a DPI setting in ~/.trinity/share/config/startupconfig, but it's
commented out on my system:
# kcmfonts General forceFontDPI 0
Anyway, DIP different than 96 will notdo what you want fpr bitmapped fonts (if you have
bitmapped fonts enabled).
