Better Fonts on Fedora – Hacking The Hike

I don’t love Fedora’s fonts but there’s an easy solution.

There are several other font options available if Adwaita isn’t your thing. After installing a font, use Gnome Tweaks to change the system fonts.

Install Gnome Tweaks either through the Software Center or using the Terminal.

sudo dnf install gnome-tweaks

Open Gnome Tweaks and change the interface text, document text, or monospace text to your preferred font.

If antialiasing isn’t set to subpixel, make that change too.

Inter

Inter is a popular modern looking font that has widespread support. Add the COPR before installing Inter.

sudo dnf copr enable burhanverse/inter-fonts

sudo dnf install rsms-inter-vf-fonts

Roboto is the default font for Android. Its already available in the Fedora repos so this is an easy one.

sudo dnf install google-roboto-fonts

This font was designed by Adobe and is a popular option for monospace fonts.

sudo dnf install adobe-source-code-pro-fonts

I know that Ubuntu isn’t very popular with the Fedora crowd (I get it: Snaps…). However, their custom Ubuntu font is still a great looking font.

Install COPR

sudo dnf copr enable atim/ubuntu-fonts

Install

sudo dnf install ubuntu-family-fonts
