fontcfg

Configure Photon fonts

Syntax:

fontcfg [-c config_dir] [-d font_dir] [-G] [-S i|m|n]
        [script]

Options:

-c config_dir
Location of the font configuration file. Default is $HOME/.photon/font.
-d font_dir
Location of all available system fonts. Default is /usr/photon/font.
-G
Update the global configuration files in /usr/photon/font. You must be logged in as root.
-S i|m|n
Specify initial window state (i - iconify, m - maximize, n - normal).
script
Name of the script file to execute that contains the font install commands.

Description:

The fontcfg utility is used to configure your fonts under Photon. It updates per-user configuration files located in $HOME/.photon/font. If the utility is invoked by root, the global system files in /usr/photon/font are modified (you must also specify the -G global flag to confirm).


Note: Users who use a personal font configuration file don't have automatic access to new fonts when /usr/photon/font is updated. Once a configuration file is customized, it's immune to changes made on the default directory.
