Hello,

I have emerged abiword yesterday but it can not see my true type fonts. What I need to do to fix this?

Thanks.

My post on page two deals with abiword... after you have followed the initial instructions!

Printing TrueType isn't supported as far as I can see. I've switched to openoffice, the fonts look great in the new version... on screen and paper.

Actually, my ttf is working well. I"m using xfs server with fonts from my window$ partition. The problem I have is Abiword can't see them...For example, arial (monotype) is not listed...

You need to add the fonts into the AbiSuite/fonts dir and then...

Code:
/usr/bin/ttfadmin.sh /usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts


abiword only uses fonts in this dir.
