[SLE] 6.3 upgrade fonts and Staroffice
Hi everyone. Just upgraded to 6.3 and found that all our type1 fonts had been lost from Staroffice. Fortunately they remanined intact in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 but we had to do a type1inst in that directory to get the fonts.scale file back then xset fp rehash in KDE and then reinstall them in each user's installation. I think that this may help the poster of a font question earlier on which I just deleted. Naughty.

It might have been my quesion--I don't know. I've finally suceeded in adding fonts to SO. The key was getting the file setup.pdf from SO. (If it's on the SuSE CD I didn't find it.) There are gobs of type1 fonts on my Corel Draw CD. After a little experimenting, some work with SO and some don't. I certainly don't want to add a bizillion fonts. Too many is almost as bad as too few--I can't find what I want. Just wondering: Which fonts do you like and where did they come from? TIA On Sat, 15 Jan 2000, Steve's Linux wrote:

how did you do it? I'll dig as soon as possible for setup.pdf. I spend all sunday workig on that. Part of it was installing xfsft (or rather dokumenting / translating an article fron a german magazine) and the worst part was to follow the author to install the fonts manually. Basic Idea is to claim (against SO) that your printer supports a "bizillion" (TrueType) fonts as ghostscript does (it supports TTF). But SO won't work as described and I need further input on filenames (list of "additional" fonts vs font description etc.) for SO. A documentation on how to install TTF's with xfsft -as said- can be requested for the "trial to rebuild" phase.

I hope I get this right :) The only font I've added thus far to SO is zurich. I copied six files from my Corel Draw CD rom having names zurch?? .afm and .pfb, making sure to make the file names lower case. I copied them to /home/kk/Office51/fonts/type1/. {I just used gfontview to look at the fonts on the CD and maybe there are other files I should copy!}. As I don't intend to add a lot of fonts, this seems reasonable to me. I then very carefully followed the instructions in setup.pdf and it seems to have worked. I haven't been doing word processing lately and have played with this only a little. I have now exhaused my knowledge of this subject. On Mon, 17 Jan 2000, Juergen Braukmann wrote:

Had no need for the file you mention. We too got modern looking fonts from the Corel Draw 8 CD's, (you can see samples in the manual) stuck them all into the directory above, three files per font and used type1inst then in staroffice installed them in printer setup. castle t is our current favorite along with compacta (like the Impact ttf) Best wishes from Clara at FeFD, Spain. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
Hi! I have a problem with Apache in the version 6.4 of the SuSE. I can't create virtual hosts. The access to the files is always denied: Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server. I created following tree: /home/www/site/pages /home/www/site/pages/index.html /home/www/site/logs I added to the default httpd.conf: <VirtualHost greisby.dyndns.org> ServerName greisby.dyndns.org ServerAdmin greisby@zenon-media.com DocumentRoot /home/www/site/pages ErrorLog /home/www/site/logs/error.log CustomLog /home/www/site/logs/access.log common </VirtualHost> <Directory /home/www/site/pages> Allow from all Order allow,deny </Directory> It's a problem of rights, since it works if I move my tree to /usr/local/httpd/htdocs/site/ , but I can't find what. The O'Reilly on Apache configuration doesn't cover this kind of problems... Any clue?
