Improve fonts archlinux

improve_fonts.txt

To improve the fonts in Arch we first need to add some additional fonts. Add the following to the terminal:

sudo pacman -S ttf-bitstream-vera ttf-inconsolata ttf-ubuntu-font-family ttf-dejavu ttf-freefont ttf-linux-libertine ttf-liberation

yaourt -S ttf-ms-fonts ttf-vista-fonts monaco-linux-font ttf-qurancomplex-fonts 

Next we will disable bitmat fonts, which are used as a fallback. 

sudo ln -s /etc/fonts/conf.avail/70-no-bitmaps.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d

Now we need to add the Infinality repo to our pacman.conf file. To do this, open the file with gedit (or whatever text editor your using):

sudo gedit /etc/pacman.conf

Add the following to your pacman.conf to use the infinality repo:

[infinality-bundle]
SigLevel = Never
Server = http://bohoomil.com/repo/$arch

[infinality-bundle-multilib]
SigLevel = Never
Server = http://bohoomil.com/repo/multilib/$arch

[infinality-bundle-fonts]
SigLevel = Never
Server = http://bohoomil.com/repo/fonts

Then uncomment the multilib on pacman configuration to download and install 32 bit package on 64 bit systems

[multilib] 
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Install the bundle:

sudo pacman -Syy infinality-bundle infinality-bundle-multilib # all question answer yes

Finally, reboot your system.
