The first fluxbox run generates and populates a ~/.fluxbox directory.
The BlueFlux style uses Andale-10, and the bloe style uses tahoma-10.
bash-4.3$ curl -OLs \
> https://ponce.cc/slackware/sources/repo/webcore-fonts-3.0.tar.gz
bash-4.3$
Extract the .tar.gz and move andalemo.ttf and tahoma.ttf to ~/.local/share/fonts.
Then run the following command.
fc-cache -f -v
Increasing font sizes is done in your ~/.fluxbox/overlay file.
The below may be useful for high resolution monitors.
bash-4.3$ tail /var/lib/sbopkg/SBo/14.2/system/webcore-fonts/README
The following Fontconfig setting (taken from infinality.net)
is recommended. Put it in /etc/fonts/local.conf or
~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf:
<!-- Disable embedded bitmaps in fonts like Calibri -->
<match target="font" >
<edit name="embeddedbitmap" mode="assign">
<bool>false</bool>
</edit>
</match>
bash-4.3$
