Hi all,

Well, several questions actually...

I received a cd I ordered containing 6800 true type fonts. Installing
them with Mandrake Control Centre goes smoothly. But:
1. Are there any drawbacks when I install the whole lot?

2. I noticed not all installed fonts are available in The Gimp (where I
need them most). Is thare an easy way to make all installed fonts
available to Gimp?
3. When installing 6800 is too much, is there a recommended way to
manage the fonts. Is there a tool where fonts can be viewed from the
*.ttf file?
Thanks and regards,
Marco
     

I don't know the answer to your questions, but I would be interested 
where to obtain all these fonts.
   

Gimp tip where you select the size of the font type a number up to 850
(you will get that size font (great for making banners) 
 

As a matter of interest you wouldn't know how to add white text to photo 
images would you, so far I haven't figured it out. I suppose I should 
ask this as another thread, still it is font related.

John
