Hi,
In future LM versions, would you integrate Ubuntu fonts? They are a little bit bolder and I find they are better for my eyesight.
Thanks for any info

Mint uses the same fonts as Ubuntu already. Any difference you perceive is purely in your mind.Eucalyptus wrote:Hi,

One would assume that LM10 will include the Ubuntu font, but the older ones won't, just as Lucid and older don't.

Oh crap, why didn't I check before? After reading your answer, I went to Preference/ Appearance and saw the Ubuntu font. For some reason, it's not used by default so I just wrongly assumed that Mint team had excluded it.JasonLG wrote:Mint uses the same fonts as Ubuntu already.

Re: Will LinuxMint integrate Ubuntu Fonts
Sorry for not followup. I changed the fonts to Ubuntu (in Prerefence / Appearance). However, this seems not affect the Gnome menu and the text in the top panel. The font still looks small (I use standard Gnome menu). What should I do change the font & size in Gnome menu?
Thanks
Thanks

The panel / menu font sizes are probably set in the theme files. Look at what theme
you have, go to /usr/share/themes/YOUR_THEMES_NAME and edit the text files
inside the gtk-2.0 folder. Search for "font" inside the text or something like that.
I'm not sure about that one, but there should be something setting the panel font
size. I think the default theme is called Mint X?
