Hi I tried the various options and it still does not work the sites I am trying to access are www.dainikjagran.com and www.amarujala.com - their fonts are available on the website itself.
I tried following the instructions as given by Vivek Kapoor , seen below but no progress. I tried both as root and as user tried the other option of making a local.conf file and that too does not work my local.conf file is below: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <!-- /etc/fonts/local.conf file for local customizations --> <fontconfig> <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF</dir> <dir>/usr/share/fonts/hindi</dir> </fontconfig> I used gedit to edit and save I wonder what I am missing ?? regards ram Vivek Kapoor wrote: >On Tue, August 9, 2005 12:23, [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: > > >in ubuntu no fiddling with local.conf is required. copy all the TTF fonts >to /etc/fonts >then in your home directory make a symlink of /etc/fonts as .fonts > >$ cd ~ >$ ln -s /etc/fonts .fonts > >run fc-cache though usually its not required. it rebuilds the fonts cache > >$ fc-cache -f > >that's all. open your preferences->fonts and see if the font is listed. >you don't even need to logout. just shut down firefox and start it and it >will be there > > > _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
