Fonts

To open the Fonts preferences page, go to Options > Preferences > Fonts.

The following options are available:

• Editor - The family and size of the font used for displaying text information in the text editor. This option affects both the Text and Grid mode.
  Note: On Mac OS X, the default font, Monaco, cannot render bold typeface characters.
• Author default font - The family and size of the font used for displaying text in the Author mode. This value is used as default in case another one is not specified in the CSS file associated with the opened document.
• Schema default font - The family and size of the font used for displaying text in:
  • the Design mode of the W3C XML Schema editor (the schema diagram);
  • images with schema diagram fragments that are included in the HTML documentation generated from an XML Schema.
• Text antialiasing - Allows you to set text anti-aliasing behavior:
  • Default - allows the application to use the setting of the operating system, if available;
  • On - sets the text anti-aliasing to pixel level;
  • Off - disables text anti-aliasing;
  • sub-pixel anti-aliasing modes, like GASP, LCD_HRGB, LCD_HBGR, LCD_VRGB, and LCD_VBGR.
• Text components - The family and size of the font used for displaying text information in text components. After changing the font, restart the application for the change in this setting to take effect.
• GUI - The family and size of the font used for displaying user interface labels. After changing the font, restart the application for the change in this setting to take effect.

To edit the fields use the Choose and Reset buttons available next to each value. The Choose button opens a dialog that allows you to configure the Font family, the Font size and whether the text is rendered bold. A preview window is also available. The Reset button restores the setting to their default values.
