Hi,

I wanna change my font family but i was not able to find the configuration file for it. In the following is what I would like to do. Does anyone know how to change fonts? Thanks in advance.

Application/Document/Desktop font: Liberation Sans, size 8
Window title font: Liberation Sans Bold, size 10
Fixed with font: Liberation Mono, 10

Font rendering: Best contrast (the others left weird artifacts, but mostly up to taste here I think)

Under details:
Resolution: 99 dpi (to avoid the letters to get too close, need at least 1 px between them ;-)
Smoothing: Grayscale

Hinting: Full

Hi

From which part of LXDE do you wanna change the font? the Windowtitlebar? the Menu and Applications? Desktop is the same as Menu and applications, you can set this in LXApereance.

Window Title Font is changeable with Obconf.
Fixed Font (if only used in terminals) is changeable in your terminal configuration.

Is there a way to change the font (size) used with LXPanel? This is the only part of LXDE I didn't manage to customize in terms of font so far...

Start LXApereance and have a look at the left bottom, you'll find a useful dialog :)
