. My main QUESTION (#1) is how and where to add, delete, and temporarily store fonts so those that I may want to temporarily remove from immediate use could be restored later, if desired. After much searching, I have learned the following: I found that I could use: $ /usr/lib/openoffice/spadmin then click "fonts" to add some fonts. However, even though there are 70 or so fonts that appear in the Open Office Writer font list, there was only one font face listed by spadmin -- OpenSymbol (opens___.ttf) -- and therefore, I could not use 'spadmin' to either delete or rename any of the fonts that Open Office lists. I finally found that I could use: K(start) > Home > Fonts > System -- to delete certain fonts ... but what can I do if I do not want to totally delete any of those fonts, but rather I just want to temporarily relocate them so I would have the option to restore them later, if desired? So my next question is: QUESTION #2: How can I temporarily relocate some of the fonts that Open Office lists in the font selection pop-up dialog so they will be removed from that list but still be available to be restored later, if desired? When I in an Open Office Write document and then click I see a long list of about 70 fonts, many of which I have little if any use for. I would like to make that list that pops up shorter so it only includes the fonts that I most often use, so I don't have to scroll down through a bunch of fonts that I don't need to find the ones I want. QUESTION #3: Where can I find all the font files on my system? The K(start) > Home > Fonts > System location bar shows the location as "fonts:/System" but I can not find that location from the command line. When I use 'locate' to try to find the listed fonts, I cannot find them. QUESTION #4: Why does this command: xset -q fail to show a list of font path locations? This is all it shows: Font Path: unix/:-1 QUESTION #5: Why does this command: /usr/sbin/chkfontpath list all these "Current directories in font path:" shown below, but I cannot find some of the fonts that appear in the OpenOffice font list in any of those locations? 1: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled 2: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont 3: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont/Type1 4: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont/ttf 5: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled 6: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled 7: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 8: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF 9: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo 10: /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 11: /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/adobestd35 12: /usr/share/fonts/ttf/decoratives 13: /usr/share/fonts/ttf/dejavu 14: /usr/share/fonts/ttf/western --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
