It is entirely possible that the PW on 5.3.1 now only checks on a correct reboot if USE_ALT_FONTS is there or not - and a simple framework restart is not enough? I will go test that out and see what happens.
Edit: Mph that is not it either. Did not try with ;fc-chache, but from restart framework option from JBPatch, and it recognizes a deleting USE_ALT_FONTS and putting it back after the restart of the framework. So restarting only the framework should be enough. Remains a mystery  |
;fc-cache updates Fontconfig cache, i.e. tells system to rescan fonts folders, including
/mnt/us/fonts, and makes found fonts known to system. It does framework restart, but framework restart is required just for updating list of known fonts on Java side (reader program). Full restart is superfluous. USE_ALT_FONTS handling is completely implemented in some part of framework and no other system component is interested in it's existence. Refer to technical details in
my original post.
