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?
I put them in a directory called /usr/share/fonts/purchased
This next step probably is not necessary, or so I have been told, but it doesn't hurt either -
cd /usr/share/fonts/purchased mkfontscale . mkfontdir
-=- They just work and are available systemwide. I don't use OO.o though. OO.o use to do its own font thing - I don't know if it still does.
