Re: [kde] font size, dpi and rendering in KDE and Gnome

When qt and gtk apps are all set to the "same" fonts but they don't
actually match, it means kde and gtk are using different DPI values.

There's the phrase I was waiting for to appear: "different DPI values".
I put screen size in xorg.conf, so dpi is gathered automatically.
Now where do KDE and Gtk get _different_ values than those calculated by X?


http://www.mozilla.org/unix/dpi.html should help you find out how your
DPI is derived, then you can adjust as necessary to ensure they match.
