Install Required Fonts on Arch Linux
I was reinstalling Arch Linux just the other day and I noticed that, while my Desktop looked natural enough, my web browser fonts did not. I did some quick reading and found some of the fonts that seem to clear up the issue. If your fonts look a bit fuzzy, you’ll likely want to keep reading.
Arch Linux Fonts
To get a better all-around font experience, including the desktop and the web, I installed the following packages:
- ttf-droid
- ttf-liberation
- ttf-dejavu
- ttf-ms-fonts
To install all of these, simply run:
sudo pacman -S ttf-droid ttf-liberation ttf-dejavu ttf-ms-fonts
You may need to restart your browser, or even logout and log back in, but you should notice a change once these fonts are installed.
