size 12 police is ugly

Post by roken »

Hello everyone,
Can't seem to find any answer so i'm posting a question.
I would like to have bigger sized police, but it doesn't look good, it's a bit pixelated. How can i fix that? Thx a lot in advance for any response.

Edit: i just found out that opening my pdf file with chrome rather than edge rendered it a lot better.

Hi Roken,

welcome to the forum!

I recommend using Latin Modern for a high-quality font that looks like the default font, with \usepackage{lmodern} in the preamble (or an equivalent LyX setting). The default font looks bad with modern font encoding for French. Another way to improve this would be installing the cm-super package in your TeX installation, which improves the default font.
