First try if the outcome is what you expect:
Set the variable '''_JAVA_OPTIONS''' by running this command in a terminal:
 
1) Set the variable '''_JAVA_OPTIONS''' accordingly:


  export _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel -Dswing.crossplatformlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel ${_JAVA_OPTIONS}"
  export _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel -Dswing.crossplatformlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel ${_JAVA_OPTIONS}"


2) Run your Java app from the same terminal window.
First test to see if the outcome is what you expect by running your Java app from the same terminal window.


If the result looks good to you, let us make the changes permanent:
If the result looks good to you, let us make the changes permanent:


1) Append the above definition of the '''_JAVA_OPTIONS''' variable to '''~/.profile''' (for your user only) or '''/etc/profile.d/90-java_ops.sh''' (system-wide). In both cases, if the file does not exist, create it.
Append the above definition of the '''_JAVA_OPTIONS''' variable to '''~/.profile''' (for your user only) or '''/etc/profile.d/90-java_ops.sh''' (system-wide). In both cases, if the file does not exist, create it.
 
2) Restart the system
 
3) Start your Java app to check the result.
 
4) If, for some reason, the entry in '''~/.profile''' or '''/etc/profile.d/90-java_ops.sh''' had no effect, you can put the following line into '''/etc/environment''':
 
_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel -Dswing.crossplatformlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel ${_JAVA_OPTIONS}"
