Description Matthias Clasen 2013-02-24 07:22:49 UTC
it may be good to mention that the new fonts will be available right away after calling fc-cache, without restarting sessions.
Comment 1 Sindhu S 2013-02-24 08:22:23 UTC
Please confirm if this is to be mentioned on a11y-font-size.page? As that is the only page related to changing font size under gnome-user-docs.
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2013-02-24 20:41:37 UTC
I'm talking about this page: http://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/fonts.html.en

Added information on when then new fonts are available.
Hope it's okay.
Thanks!

"will be available", not "are available". Do not use contractions.

"need to", not "have to" is slightly better.

Addition to fonts.page

Squashed the 2 patches.
Comment 7 Matthias Clasen 2013-04-08 02:18:44 UTC
Since this is the sysadmin guide, it is a bit misleading to talk about 'your session' here - the change affects all sessions, so maybe say 'User sesssions don't have to be restarted to see the changes.'
