| Template: fontconfig/hinting_type |
| Type: select |
| _Choices: Native, Autohinter, None |
| Default: Native |
| _Description: How should fonts be tuned for the screen? |
| Select Native if you mostly use Bitstream Vera (the default in Debian) or |
| any of the Microsoft fonts. Select Autohinter if you mostly use other |
| TrueType fonts. Select None if you want blurry text. |

| Template: fontconfig/subpixel_rendering |
| Type: select |
| _Choices: Automatic, Always, Never |
| Default: Automatic |
| _Description: Enable subpixel rendering of text? |
| Rendering text at a subpixel level generally makes it look a bit better |
| on flat (LCD) screens, but can show color artifacts on CRT screens. The |
| "Automatic" choice will enable it only if a LCD screen is detected. |
| |
| Template: fontconfig/enable_bitmaps |
| Type: boolean |
| Default: false |
| _Description: Enable bitmapped fonts by default? |
| By default, only outline fonts are used by applications which support |
| fontconfig. Outline fonts are fonts which scale well to various sizes. |
| In contrast, bitmapped fonts are often lower quality. Enabling this option |
| will affect the systemwide default; this and many other fontconfig options |
| may be enabled or disabled on a per-user basis. |
