> It's not about font size, like how tall it's supposed to be, it's about hinting and antialiasing. If I turn than on, then the font is weighter, easier to read for me. If you open font settings for gtk/gnome, then you can tweak these options there and see what I mean. Different settings fit for different monitors (CRT/LCD/Laptop/...).

So the font.conf settings are specifying that the fonts are not hinted nor anti-aliased? Typically those are on by default, unless fontconfig disables them for a particular font.

Here's a guide to configuring fontconfig via the ~/fonts.conf file: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Font_Configuration#Fontconfig_configuration
