+@item font-backend
+A list of symbols, specifying the @dfn{font backends} to use for
+drawing fonts in the frame, in order of priority. On X, there are
+currently two available font backends: @code{x} (the X core font
+driver) and @code{xft} (the Xft font driver). On other systems, there
+is only one available font backend, so it does not make sense to
+modify this frame parameter.

@item background-mode
This parameter is either @code{dark} or @code{light}, according
to whether the background color is a light one or a dark one.
These variables affect newly created frames. They do not normally

frame, that also installs the current value of those two variables.
