Thanks but i have just solved all my font problems. In the contrib area is an article about getting Abiword fonts to work, and it works for all fonts. To get scribus to use the correct fonts make a file called .scribusfonts.rc in home directory containing: tcp/localhost:7100 to get applix to find its fonts put the font paths into /etc/X11/fs/config. thanks for all your help garry > > Jim McQuillan > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
