Re: trouble with fonts


http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-where-are-my-fonts

I suspect that installing some fonts might solve your problem.

Now I installed pretty much every font the cygwin setup shows, but same result.


Fonts of certain programs (QT) appear as square blocks.

The programs are running on a remote machine over a putty x11 tunnel.
The "eagle" program you see in the background runs on another remote
machine over another putty tunnel. That program behaves as expected.

Hmm, yes. It looks like that is using the server-side built-in font successfully, whereas the Qt applications would be using client-side fonts.

client side is remote side, right? Is there a way to convince the apps on the remote side to use the fonts on the server?

Bert
