from inside emacs: menu -> options -> customize emacs -> specific face -> "def" [enter] - this shows the default, you can change the font family, size, color, etc.

Re: How can I change the font for emacs in ubuntu 7.10
Thanks, I am trying to change the 'Font Family' of the default face.
So I go to Attributes: Font Family: and type 'monospace' But it does not work. When I open the customization page again, I see 'adobe-courier' again. Thank you for any more help. |

Re: How can I change the font for emacs in ubuntu 7.10
it work for me, but i'm not using the "Monospace" font.
it seems that this font is simply not available as a regular x11 font (even though it is in the gnome/gtk font list), see xlsfont or xfontsel. perhaps it has a different name in x11 or something else must be configured in ubuntu to make it available for all applications. unfortunately i don't know much about this subject. (also make sure you are changing the "State" in emacs after configuring the font - "set for current session" or "save for future sessions") |
