Package updated to 20250302.2217 and ttf-lucida-fonts set as an optional dependency. Thanks @dois for the fix.

It might be worthwhile to set ttf-lucida-fonts as an optional dependency to encourage users to fix font rendering on this.

For anyone struggling with having properly rendered fonts:

  1. Install the Lucida fonts package
    ttf-lucida-fonts

  2. Create a Fontconfig file
    Create ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d/01-fiji.conf with the following contents:

        <?xml version="1.0"?>
        <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "urn:fontconfig:fonts.dtd">
        <fontconfig>
            <alias>
                <family>sans-serif</family>
                <prefer>
                    <family>Lucida Sans</family>
                </prefer>
            </alias>
            <alias>
                <family>monospace</family>
                <prefer>
                    <family>Lucida Console</family>
                </prefer>
            </alias>
        </fontconfig>
    
  3. (Optional) Set the _JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable
    As per the Arch Wiki - JAVA, you might need to set this:

export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=gasp -Dswing.aatext=true'

Thanks to: ImageJ forum discussion.

Does anyone else having horrible font rendering with this package? I tried to set menu font size to different values but it always reset to 0 points after restart.

@konung-yaropolk Then you should not install fiji with pacman, just download the binary tarball and extract it to home dir.

Will be a better option to make the installation not into /opt, but to the user's home directory by the address /home/$USER/.local/opt. That will solve the problem with installation and updating plugins, which now requires running a program with sudo to do that, and it is not the safest way.

@lezsakdomi I have tested the newest version 20220222-1217. It seems to work!

@hottea as SPW_87 pointed out, using an older version works. I couldn't get any targz of the most recent version (20201104-1356) to work.

For me downloading the version before is totally fine, but I'm curious what the issue could be.

It seems like that the issue is not bound to the specific JRE used. I've almost reported this issue on Fiji github, but it seems like the downloads.imagej.net is behind the tags on Fiji's github. In the recent tag it seems like they've just did something with the launcher, so I'll try those versions and hopefully post an update afterwards.

@lezsakdomi This pkg uses the the bundled jre, you might try the one with no-jre, check here. If still not working, contact the upstream for help.
