17. Font Control

The Font Control box in the XSettings dialog box lets you specify how XServer will use fonts in X-sessions. (See section Font Control Box of the XSettings utility in chapter Configuring WinaXe Plus.)

The Font Path button allows you to manage font sources that can be used in X-sessions. The Pseudo fonts button allows you to define how XServer will use MS Windows fonts in X-sessions.

The Font Manager item in the X-session Control menu allows you to see: actual Font Path; the font list of each font directory; font information, properties, metrics, and images of any available font. (See section Font Service below.)

If the Trace Fonts Requests check box in the XSettings dialog box is checked, then all font requests from X clients (with resolve messages) will be stored in the xserver.out file. This option is useful for analysis of the font accessibility and resolving font problems by XServer.
