I recently installed the lumos font (don't laugh) after converting it from
true type using the ttf2pt1 package. I installed the .afm and .pfb files
in the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local/ directory. I generated the
fonts.scale, fonts.dir, and Fontmap files using the appropriate commands,
and I added the directory to the xfs path by using the chkfontpath command.
The problem is that while gnome-fontselect lists the font, other
applications such as abiword (which doesn't apparently use gnome-fontselect
?) and xfig can't seem to find it; it doesn't appear in their 'font' lists
when I go to change fonts. How can I get an application like xfig to
recognize this font (I actually wanted to use this font in a xfig
drawing)? What am I doing wrong?
