I would argue against it because the settings made there apply to all users, even non interactive ones such as daemons using fontconfig to serve bitmap content generated on the fly. For a desktop user, the best place is still a separate file located in any of the directories listed in /usr/local/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf. Contrary to fonts.conf, files you name yourself will probably not be altered by the desktop---if they are then its a bug. -- %!PS -- Bertrand Petit /D{def}def/E{exch}D/G{get}D/I{2 div}D/U{dup}D/L{roll}D/Y{setgray}D/N{newpath}D /O{N 0 0 moveto}D/P{pop}D/T{translate}D currentpagedevice/PageSize G U 0 G/w E D 1 G /h E D w I h I T 0 Y 1 setlinewidth 0 1 2 { P 120 rotate 2 4 w U mul h U mul add sqrt I 50 add {N 50 0 3 2 L 0 360 arc stroke}for}for/s{O true charpath pathbbox exch 4 -1 L E sub I 3 1 L sub I} D /l(bp)D 0.94 Y /Helvetica findfont 22 scalefont setfont l s P(x)s exch P T O l show showpage
