* If you are using bitmap font make sure that
:file:`/etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf` does not exist. If it does check
out your distribution documentation to find a proper way to remove it (so that
it won’t reappear after update). E.g. in Gentoo this is::
eselect fontconfig disable 70-no-bitmaps.conf
(currently this only removes the symlink from :file:`/etc/fonts/conf.d`). Also
check out that no other fontconfig file does not have ``rejectfont`` tag that
tells fontconfig to disable bitmap fonts (they are referenced as not
scalable).
