Victor V. Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Hello everybody. I hope i get some help here. I changed all the fonts to Arial. Looks much better for me. But here are still some fonts in the OS which i was unable to change them. How can i set everything to Arial ? In this link you'll see that in Everest the fonts are not Arial. Same when i move arround the mouse cursor over the tray icons ( day,month letters ) Check the pics, please : http://img225.images...erestfonts.jpg/ http://img339.images.../trayclock.jpg/ Thanks in advance. PS : i use Cleartype, but all i want is to "disable" this Segoe UI fonts Arial? Seriously? Arial is like, the new Comic Sans. Sans the Comic.

KM. Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Does anyone have a screenshot with how it looks on the desktop? I want to take the plunge as Tahoma is a great font but not sure if it is worth it.

TCA Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 I'm so used to segoe I don't think i could ever get used to seeing Tahoma Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/890802-windows-aero-tahoma-font/page/2/#findComment-593423726 Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo158 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Wow, there's people out there who would GIMP Windows 7 this badly? What is wrong with cleartype? Turning off cleartype makes fonts look all jaggy and pixellated like in Windows 95. Also, Segoe UI is a wonderful font. What on earth would drag you back down to ........ Tahoma? Especially with cleartype disabled. Just get used to it, Windows 7 has Aero, it has Segoe UI, Seriously, disabling cleartype in Aero? Are you out of your mind? Good lord. +1 Anyone who loves Tahoma needs to be taken outside and shot......... repeatedly!!!!!!! Same with Comic Sans!!!!!! As for Cleartype, never had a problem with it, although tbh, on some monitors, LCD and CRT it does look awful. But switching the font back to Tahoma is just wrong.

LiquidSolstice Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Might be a bit late to post this, but if ClearType ****es you off that much, why not give gdipp a shot instead? http://code.google.com/p/gdipp/ Eric G. and primexx 2 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/890802-windows-aero-tahoma-font/page/2/#findComment-593436326 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice "stop liking what i don't like" mentality. I've always been very fond of Tahoma without Cleartype, and ever since the first visual styles editor came for Vista, i've replaced my Segoe ui with Tahoma completely. Same did i with Windows 7.

Whitehawk Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Thank you Eric! This is the best tool for Win 7! I have spent so far two weeks to eliminate Segoe UI without luck, but finally i found your comment! On the other i would like to ask you to make an update :blush: . Tahoma at 8pt on a 22" LCD (full HD) is too small. Is it possible to change all Tahoma from 8pt to 10pt? I prefer manual install, maybe it helps you! Please make a Tahoma 10pt version also!

Cosmitz Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I'm sorry to bump this but for some reason after more than a year of using it, maybe due to some critical update to Windows7, the original file no longer works. The system considers aero is 'disabled' if said msstyle file is in use. When i put back the original file, i have full Aero back.

Try installing this: http://www.syssel.net/hoefs/software_uxtheme.php?lang=en After that try to apply the theme again ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/890802-windows-aero-tahoma-font/page/2/#findComment-596479691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmcclelland455 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 This is pretty neat. I'll have to throw an old Windows 7 machine together and see how this looks on my old CRT.
