Hi folks,
 
It's been some time now since I've used my old copy of 
WordPerfect 8.0 Personal Edition for Linux. I usually use 
the OpenOffice suite these days. 

However, I've been looking to install more fonts for 
OpenOffice and make them accessible to other programs like 
Gimp and Inkscape through X and defoma. I recalled that my 
WordPerfect disk had a fine selection of fonts (130). 
They're quite accessible on disk but I'm not sure how to 
install them. (Basically they are .afm and .pfb files for 
Type 1 fonts.) 

I'm sure there must be a way to install and access these 
fonts on a current linux distro. But I sure can't find it. 
Everything I google relates to the 8.1 version. 

Can anyone help me out here? Basically what I think I need 
to know is how to tell defoma about the fonts so that it 
recognizes them. 

What do I need to do to find peace and happiness and 
achieve enlightment? 

        tia, 

        b.
