The One Font (to rule them all)
I have been using Bitstream Vera in place of bluebold.ttf and I think it looks better. It is not a "fantasy font" but it the font is really nice and clean one.
Maybe screen borders could be decorated with little elvish writing?

Heres and example, Wesnoth 0.3.4 using Bitstream Vera Bold
And yes, it looks well, but i think it can look better (with smaller size or another font).

After a little change on menu.cpp,
And using Bitstream Vera (normal)...
Code: Select all
const int menu_font_size = 12;
static const int message_font_size = 12;
static const int caption_font_size = 16;
I like the font, but who holds the copyright, and under what terms can it be redistributed?
I definitely think that we want to avoid using any 'fancy' looking fonts.
Also, should the font used be a setting according to the language being used?
I like the idea of using the Elvish font somewhere, I'm just not sure where

Bitstream Vera fonts are included in Debian main - so it is DFSG free.
