+++ A G [PLUG] [01-11-05 09:31 +0000]: | hi all, | | i was trying to read esakal on my ubuntu 5.10. | | i was trying to run the commands as per what these | guys are saying... | http://www.esakal.com/prog/frm_downloadfont.htm#linux | | 4.Make sure that name of the font is 'subak.ttf' and | not 'SUBAK.ttf'. If required convert the name to lower | case i.e. 'subak.ttf'. | 5.Use command 'ttmkfdir>fonts.scale'. | 6.Use command 'mkfontdir'. | | but at line 5, i am getting foll err: | [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/bin/ttffonts$ sudo | ttmkfdir>fonts.scale | bash: fonts.scale: Permission denied | [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/bin/ttffonts$
Never tried this way. Generally installed font on desktop in ~/.fonts. Copy the .ttf in ~/.fonts directory. Run 'fc-cache'. Then verify with 'fc-list'. | I also installed the extention from | http://padma.mozdev.org/ | but even after that I see junk character on esakal | site. Instead of esakal, try http://mr.wikipedia.org. With konqueror as it renders the fonts properly.
