I am using Emacs 23.3. How can I change the font size and font type?
Go to Format > Font > Font. + D to open the Font dialog box. Select the font and size you want to use. Select Default, and then select Yes.
By default, Emacs displays text on graphical displays using a 10-point monospace font, and the font size can be changed interactively (see Text Scale).
For a given character, you can find out which font was used by moving point to that character than then doing C-u C-x = which will give you all kinds of information about that position in the buffer, including which font was used for it.
Bootstrap's global default font-size is 14px, with a line-height of 1.428.
You can also do the following in your .emacs
file.
(set-frame-font "Inconsolata 12" nil t)
(set-default-font "Inconsolata 12" nil t)
You can use the menu bar. Go to Options
->Set Default Font...
.
After you choose a font, don't forget to press Options
->Save Options
—otherwise your new font will not be saved after you close Emacs.
