To be totally accurate you'd add "fonts will then be rendered
according to the configuration of /etc/X11/XftConfig (moving to
/etc/fonts/fonts.conf in a future version, as we move to fontconfig
instead of Xft1).  Settings in XftConfig or fonts.conf determine how
fonts are rendered, including whether to use hinting and
antialiasing."
