Hi Folks,
I have RH 8.0 installed on my laptop. It's great! AbiWord HEAD
fits in beautifully to this fontconfig enabled distro.
One of the features of RH 8.0 is the .fonts directory in every users home
directory. If Type 1 or TTF fonts get placed there xft will automatically
recognize them and make them available.
However for AbiWord to print them we also need some extra info. So my
question to Joaquin is: What does a users on RH 8.0 have to do to get a
new font recognized by AbiWord? Do they have to run ttftool on them after
placing them in .fonts?
Thanks!
Martin
