basically, you'll need to add a reference to the path where the fonts reside. Then, you'll need to generate fonts.scale and fonts.dir in that directory.

The support is _much_ better in the newer version. Is there any way you can upgrade? I don't know how recent your KDE is, but that has a big part to play. I'm not overly proud of this, but it may have some links you can use to learn about fonts. http://baldur.globalsymmetry.com/proprietary/com/wri/ch05s02.html STH -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFARyoXwX61+IL0QsMRArxJAJ922VFqzfm8Y+/HxRG5SAg15ppjEQCghbaQ 8fdQ5Uxskqo7b2xWojmPkas= =AACa -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
