Hi,

Deja Vu Sans and Dejavu Serif is one of the best imo. The Ubuntu fonts are… ubuntuish and "playschool like", although I like this font alright. Deja vu goes best with most needs.

I can't get DejaVu to draw the outside box right.   Unifont does but it
still needs some adjustment.    It has 30,000+ characters and 5,900
glyphs to display numerous shapes.   DejaVu only has a few thousand
and doesn't do the box right.    Or get rid of the outside box and use any
graphical font there is then.     Unifont is the only free font with 30,000
characters and is the font grub2 uses as the default screen font.

When I use the grub2 make font utility I can get unifont bigger and
bold but it didn't look too good.   So right now I'm using webdings size
12 which defaults it to text mode with gray and blue lettering,  black
background.

Pretty darn good program.

Hi,

What do you can "the outside box" and could you show a screen-shot?

In dj's screen-shot of his menu it's the brown line around the menu
entries inside the brown box.     I'm saying without that brown box
any font would work, whatever file that brown outline comes from.
I can't do a screen-shot of the grub2 screen.

Ok, you are having trouble with the font displayed by Grub2 then. I have tried to configure it once or twice and didn't succeed. I confess I have not found why I could not change the font with the grub-customizer tool. I have not retried since some time and perhaps some newer versions would have improved it.
