Yes, you're right about removing the free part. I simply wanted to make a single package of truetype fonts for ease of use. I see now that there are a number of ttf packages, but they seem to all be asian charsets. I'm trying to create an alternative for msttcorefonts and xfonts-scalable-nonfree packages (which do not follow the convention you have mentioned here). michael -- michael cardenas | lead software engineer | lindows.com | hyperpoem.net "And if the earth no longer knows your name, whisper to the silent earth: I'm flowing.
