How do I get extra TTFs added to FC3 so that all users can access them?

The trick that worked with RH9 was to copy them into a directory somewhere and use as root:-

/usr/bin/ttmkfdir > fonts.dir
/usr/sbin/chkfontpath --add /usr/winfont

Someone said that for FC3 just copy the fonts into:-

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/

but that didn't work either, at least not with Open Office which is what I want to use them with.

Anybody know how to do this?

Thanks

Place the fonts under /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF, then just (as root) run:
/sbin/service xfs reload

You may need to restart your session so some apps are aware of the fonts (not necesarily required), and that's it.
