NAME

       fc-match - match available fonts

SYNOPSIS

       fc-match  [  -asvVh  ]  [ --all ]  [ --sort ]  [ --verbose ]  [  [ -f format ]  [ --format
       format ]  ]  [ --version ]  [ --help ]

        [ pattern  [ element... ]   ]

DESCRIPTION

       fc-match matches pattern (empty pattern by default) using the normal  fontconfig  matching
       rules  to  find  the  best  font  available.  If  --sort is given, the sorted list of best
       matching fonts is displayed.  The --all option works like --sort except that no pruning is
       done on the list of fonts.

       If any elements are specified, only those are printed.  Otherwise short file name, family,
       and style are printed, unless verbose output is requested.

OPTIONS

       This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long  options  starting  with
       two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below.

       -a     Displays sorted list of best matching fonts, but do not do any pruning on the list.

       -s     Displays sorted list of best matching fonts.

       -v     Print  verbose  output of the whole font pattern for each match, or elements if any
              is provided.

       -f     Format output according to the format specifier format.

       -V     Show version of the program and exit.

       -h     Show summary of options.

       pattern
              Displays fonts matching pattern (uses empty pattern by default).

       element
              If set, the element property is displayed for matching fonts.
