Some good instructions were found here:
http://www.linux.org.uk/~telsa/BitsAndPieces/browser-tweaks.html I also found that using the microsoft .ttf that come with Windows95 or from their webpages made a very nice RPM of extra fonts. If there is any reason to buy a $5.00 cd of Windows 95 from somewhere.. this is. The best order I found for fonts was the following: catalogue = /usr/share/fonts/microsoft/TrueType, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi, /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1, /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType, /usr/share/fonts/ja/TrueType THe first one being from the RPM I had made up. I removed all the 100dpi fonts because they seemed to mess up Java unless you have a monitor that actually handled 100dpi. THe best monitor I have did 96dpi and that caused the 100dpi to be much bigger than they should be.
