Hi,

I've just recently installed Suse 8.2, and am having trouble with fonts :-) Most of the Script Fu examples won't work - they fail horribly 'cos they can't find the fonts.

Here's the "Files" section from XF86Config - I have checked in each font dir and the fonts really are there. So how come the scripts can't see them?

Donna

Did you install the freefonts package? Most scripts refer to fonts found in that collection.

The directions for installing the freefonts collection are very explicit and clear, but they aren't sufficient for installing other fonts one may have. Is there guidance availble on that subject?
