I have now checked that I have fonts for 75 dpi and fonts for 100 dpi:

bash-4.2$ grep -i fonts /var/log/Xorg.0.log
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/win7/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,
        /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/

Where /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/win7/ is the custom directory where I
imported the fonts from Windows 7.

But my real dpi is 96.

Should I manually startx with a dpi value of 100 and blacklist the 75 dpi fonts?

Can I somehow optimize my fonts for my dpi or doesn't it really matter?
