Hi,

I've been importing fonts from that other OS (toOS hereafter :) several 
times in Red Hat 7.3, using KDE's utility from the Control Center. The 
process has always been smooth and easy, and not only did KDE apps work 
fine with those fonts, but also Mozilla and other generic X apps would 
show perfect, un-ugly fonts.

When I got Mandrake 9 RC2 I found another font utility, drakfont. I 
imported fonts with that one, but it froze (or so I think) and I had to 
complete the process manually, using several X and xfs commands from 
the shell. I was able to use the imported fonts in KDE apps, but in X 
apps such as Mozilla they look, well, ugly, albeit anti-aliased by the 
desktop manager. I tried to "over-import" the fonts using the old KDE 
utility, to no avail.

I have yet to try and use the KDE font utility first in Mandrake, so has 
anyone had the same experience importing fonts from toOS? Can anyone 
confirm the KDE utility works better than drake's?

Thanks in advance for any feedback,
