Hi, I have to install a lot of ttf (more than 100). I already have the files copied on my hdd. So, is there a way to install them without using the font installer in control center? Because it copies all the files in the .fonts directory. I do not need 2 copies and I do not need to spend all that time in copying either. Does someone know what will happen if I just create soft links in .fonts directory? Or any other solution? Cheers Sunny -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny)

Unless things have changed since then, the "no-no" when using TTFs from another OS, for example, was that you could not use any TTFs which had, say, ~ or ^ or * or similar in the name although the underscore (_) was OK if I recall correctly.
