Hi. When I was a Mandrake Linux user, a couple of years ago, I used to put the file `simsun.ttf' in the directory `/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF', then add the following lines to the files `/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/fonts.dir' and `/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/fonts.scale': simsun.ttf -misc-SimSun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-ascii-0 simsun.ttf -misc-SimSun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-gb2312.1980-0 simsun.ttf -misc-SimSun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-gbk-0 simsun.ttf -misc-SimSun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-ibm-cp850 simsun.ttf -misc-SimSun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-iso10646-1 simsun.ttf -misc-SimSun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-iso8859-1 simsun.ttf -misc-SimSun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-iso8859-15 simsun.ttf -misc-SimSun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-koi8-r simsun.ttf -misc-SimSun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-big5.eten-0
, and this way the font was ready to be used on my system. Now, on my Debian Etch box the directory `/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF' does not exist. Please can anybody suggest how the above procedure is to be adapted with Debian Etch? Thanks for any help Rodolfo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
