K Control Center. That's where I saw it before. (I'm running Gnome.) K Control Center used to be available from the Gnome menu but it seems to have disappeared in recent distros. Anyway, I got the font file installed. Thanks muchly for the help. Don Henson On Wed, 2006-05-24 at 15:05 +0200, Roger Oberholtzer wrote:

I'm running SuSE 10.0. I have a TrueType font file that I would like to install. Google turned up a couple of procedures but they looked very error-prone plus they had been there awhile and could be out of date. I thought there was a routine in YaST that would do what I want but I can't seem to find it. Can anyone point me to a practical and safe way to install a single TrueType font? My undying appreciation for a good answer.
The K Control Center has this. in System Administration -> Font Installer. Choose Administrator Mode to install system-wide.
I 'think' the fonts are installed generally for X. So all TT smart apps should see them.

Hi Don, Just for future reference, from GNOME terminal as user "kcontrol &" (no quotes) gets you there. regards, Carl

That's how I did it. The trick is remembering it. (I install a font about every five years or so.) Donald D. Henson, Managing Director West El Paso Information Network The "Non-Initiation of Force Principle" Rules
