Keep in mind, only True Type and Type 1 fonts which are properly installed will be recognized by Scribus. Many of the fonts included with Xfree86 are bitmap fonts designed for terminal use and are not really suitable for print publishing.
You can visit: http://www.atlantictechsolutions.com/scribusdocs/fontprefs.html for more info. you no longer need to create the text file manually in versions after 0.9.7 (This part of the docs needs updating. One of the pleasant challenges in documenting Scribus, is keeping up with all the new features and fixes.) Hope that helps, Peter -- Peter Linnell <scribusdocs at atlantictechsolutions.com>
