Search our support database at http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/ and you'll find at least one article that describes what to do. Philipp -- Penguins to save the dinosaurs -- Handelsblatt on Linux for S/390

What Philipp was saying, is the story with the fetchmsttfonts utility. It will download fonts from M$ for you. Details see in sdb; if you search for AA (meaning anti-aliasing), you'll find it. When running fetchmsttfonts, the EULA (*) will be displayed. To escape from the EULA display, you have to hit 'q' (meaning quit). This is not mentioned in the sdb article, and I'm afraid it will never be, sigh... Cheers .... Wolfi ================================== mailto:wolfi_z@yahoo.com (*) End User License A...

If you're talking about truetype fonts, just drop the .ttf-files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype and run SuSEconfig. Other fonts should work the same way, only in different directories. If you want to do it manually without SuSEconfig, look at mkfontdir and ttmkfdir. regards Anders
