manifestoe, I had some X problems (that I don't know if it was related with the
font path file or not; can't say because I had other misconfigurations) and had
to do a clean up on the X configs.
While examining the issue I found out the way fonts add themselves to the X
core system. They link th
Just to clarify if anyone is wondering, it doesn't make any difference for
modern apps. Installing fonts nowadays is a simple as dropping them in the font
path as Matthew said.
It's only for apps that use the legacy system.

That how-to only asked to run mkfontdir for ttf fonts, not mkfontscale so I
didn't run the latter.

Yep, I use Thunderbird with my gmail accounts. The problem with yahoo is that
it doesn't have IMAP so:
- you have to download the messages.
- they (AFAIK) become unavailable in the web interface.
So for my yahoo mail I use the web interface.
The good thing about yahoo is its disposable addresses.

Hi,
This is more than likely a dumb question but I have to ask. I just moved
from Windows to Fedora a few months ago so I'm a newbie here. My stupid
question is this, can I use Windows TTF fonts in Fedora? I have about
