6. Extras *gui-extras* 6. Font

This section describes font related options.

GUIFONT *gui-font*

'guifont' is the option that tells Vim what font to use. In its simplest form
the value is just one font name. It can also be a list of font names
separated with commas. The first valid font is used. When no valid font can
be found you will get an error message.

On systems where 'guifontset' is supported (X11) and 'guifontset' is not
empty, then 'guifont' is not used. See |xfontset|.

Note: As to the GTK GUIs, no error is given against any invalid names, and the
first element of the list is always picked up and made use of. This is
because, instead of identifying a given name with a font, the GTK GUIs use it
to construct a pattern and try to look up a font which best matches the
pattern among available fonts, and this way, the matching never fails. An
invalid name doesn't matter because a number of font properties other than
name will do to get the matching done.

Spaces after a comma are ignored. To include a comma in a font name precede
it with a backslash. Setting an option requires an extra backslash before a
space and a backslash. See also |option-backslash|. For example: >
:set guifont=Screen15,\ 7x13,font\\,with\\,commas
will make Vim try to use the font "Screen15" first, and if it fails it will
try to use "7x13" and then "font,with,commas" instead.

If none of the fonts can be loaded, Vim will keep the current setting. If an
empty font list is given, Vim will try using other resource settings (for X,
it will use the Vim.font resource), and finally it will try some builtin
default which should always be there ("7x13" in the case of X). The font
names given should be "normal" fonts. Vim will try to find the related bold
and italic fonts.

For Win32, GTK, Motif, Mac OS and Photon: >
:set guifont=*
will bring up a font requester, where you can pick the font you want.

The font name depends on the GUI used. See |setting-guifont| for a way to set
'guifont' for various systems.

For the GTK+ 2 and 3 GUIs, the font name looks like this: >
:set guifont=Andale\ Mono\ 11
That's all. XLFDs are not used. For Chinese this is reported to work well: >
if has("gui_gtk2")
set guifont=Bitstream\ Vera\ Sans\ Mono\ 12,Fixed\ 12
set guifontwide=Microsoft\ Yahei\ 12,WenQuanYi\ Zen\ Hei\ 12
endif
<
(Replace gui_gtk2 with gui_gtk3 for the GTK+ 3 GUI)

For Mac OSX you can use something like this: >
:set guifont=Monaco:h10
Also see 'macatsui', it can help fix display problems.
*E236*
Note that the fonts must be mono-spaced (all characters have the same width).
An exception is GTK: all fonts are accepted, but mono-spaced fonts look best.

To preview a font on X11, you might be able to use the "xfontsel" program.
The "xlsfonts" program gives a list of all available fonts.

For the Win32 GUI *E244* *E245*
- Takes these options in the font name (use a ':' to separate the options):
hXX - height is XX (points, can be floating-point)
wXX - width is XX (points, can be floating-point)
WXX - weight is XX (see Note on Weights below)
b - bold. This is equivalent to setting the weight to 700.
i - italic
u - underline
s - strikeout
cXX - character set XX. Valid charsets are: ANSI, ARABIC, BALTIC,
CHINESEBIG5, DEFAULT, EASTEUROPE, GB2312, GREEK, HANGEUL,
HEBREW, JOHAB, MAC, OEM, RUSSIAN, SHIFTJIS, SYMBOL, THAI,
TURKISH, VIETNAMESE ANSI and BALTIC. Normally you would use
"cDEFAULT".
qXX - quality XX. Valid quality names are: PROOF, DRAFT, ANTIALIASED,
NONANTIALIASED, CLEARTYPE, DEFAULT. Normally you would use
"qDEFAULT".
Some quality values are not supported in legacy OSs.
- A '_' can be used in the place of a space, so you don't need to use
backslashes to escape the spaces.
Examples: >
:set guifont=courier_new:h12:w5:b:cRUSSIAN
:set guifont=Andale_Mono:h7.5:w4.5
See also |font-sizes|.

Note on Weights: Fonts often come with a variety of weights. "Normal" weights
in Windows have a value of 400 and, left unspecified, this is the value that
will be used when attempting to find fonts. Windows will often match fonts
based on their weight with higher priority than the font name which means a
Book or Medium variant of a font might be used despite specifying a Light or
ExtraLight variant. If you are experiencing heavier weight substitution, then
explicitly setting a lower weight value may mitigate against this unwanted
substitution.


GUIFONTWIDE *gui-fontwide*

When not empty, 'guifontwide' specifies a comma-separated list of fonts to be
used for double-width characters. The first font that can be loaded is
used.

Note: The size of these fonts must be exactly twice as wide as the one
specified with 'guifont' and the same height. If there is a mismatch then
the text will not be drawn correctly.

All GUI versions but GTK+:

'guifontwide' is only used when 'encoding' is set to "utf-8" and
'guifontset' is empty or invalid.
When 'guifont' is set and a valid font is found in it and
'guifontwide' is empty Vim will attempt to find a matching
double-width font and set 'guifontwide' to it.

GTK+ GUI only: *guifontwide_gtk*

If set and valid, 'guifontwide' is always used for double width
characters, even if 'encoding' is not set to "utf-8".
Vim does not attempt to find an appropriate value for 'guifontwide'
automatically. If 'guifontwide' is empty Pango/Xft will choose the
font for characters not available in 'guifont'. Thus you do not need
to set 'guifontwide' at all unless you want to override the choice
made by Pango/Xft.

Windows +multibyte only: *guifontwide_win_mbyte*

If set and valid, 'guifontwide' is used for IME instead of 'guifont'.
