With some excellent help I have managed to set up<BR>

used under SuSE 5.2 running Accelerated-X and Gimp 1.0.<BR>
An example of the logo script-fu output is at <X-Color><Param>red</Param><A H=

</X-Color>(Sure work fine also with XSuSE as well!)<BR>
Needed was Xfstt-0.9.9.tgz, which I unpacked in /usr/local/xfstt.<BR>
Then I put the downloaded .ttf fonts in /usr/ttfonts.<BR>
<BR>
Then I followed some instructions send from "Geremy F." <geremy@ee.gatech.edu=

What I wish there was support for, or maybe there is and I don't know
it, are the Type 1 fonts!  True Type fonts are another screw up from
MickySoft....they ALL load in memory on bootup, or at least they do on
ALL MS software.

You've done everyone a service.  Those are the most concise instructions
for running ttf fonts in linux I've seen. =20
