Infinality setup guide: Fedora

Infinality setup guide

Setup Infinality Font smoothing and supixel hinting

The default fedora font settings are not that great and most of the people really do not find it as attractive as Ubuntu or Linux Mint. But Infinality brings a big change in the Font settings area for Fedora. Once you install the Infinality repo and their binaries you are good to use various font setting options provided by them.  The default settings are more than sufficient for most of the people out there.

1. Install the Infinality YUM repository


[code] sudo rpm -ivh http://www.infinality.net/fedora/linux/infinality-repo-1.0-1.noarch.rpm [/code]

2. Install the font settings and Freetype binary


[code]sudo yum install fontconfig-infinality freetype-infinality[/code]

restart the X window to make the changes into effect.
