This looks more or less right, though it's been a very long time since I last did that, in Ubuntu I just have a GUI way to install a font (right click the font and choose "install"). As a side note, on GeoServer 2.1.x you can just drop the fonts in the "styles" directory and GeoServer will recognize them. This does not work on 2.0.x unfortunately Cheers Andrea ----------------------------------------------------- Ing. Andrea Aime Senior Software Engineer GeoSolutions S.A.S.
