I sent an e-mail to feedback@suse.de asking if it was at all possible to include an rpm of the extra fonts the gimp has on it's sites. Sure would be nice. /Dee -----Original Message----- From: jdl@suse.com [mailto:jdl@suse.com]On Behalf Of John D Lamb Sent: Tuesday, August 21, 2001 10:47 PM To: Tracer Bullet Cc: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: Re: [SLE] Adding fonts?

Hi all,
Reading some mails on the GIMP mail list, I ran across the procedure to install some more fonts for not only Gimp, but the system and StarOffice to use also. Well, I installed the fonts, went to the shell and issued the command xset fp+ <font directory> and then the rehash command and all fonts are there! Ok, that went well, but each time I restart the system, I have to do it all over again? Is there a way to make it permanent and read the new fonts like it does the ones the system installs or is that a no-no?
