Re: netscape fonts

[Joel Keating <jkeating@execpc.com>]

Ok i changed the lines in font server to use 100 dpi and i start the xserver
with the --dpi 100 switch.  I've dloaded the .deb of xfstt and it
is running.  I copied all my .ttf fonts from windows to my ttffonts
dir in linux.  What is the line i need to add to XF86Config under
debian to get X to start seeing the new ttf fonts?  Thanks for your
help?

You will benefit a lot from installing a true type font server. I use
xfstt, it's part of the debian distro, at least of potato. You will also
need some TT fonts, the're a lot of them available on the web or if you
have a Windoze machine you could get them from there too (they end in
.ttf). After you install all this go in Netscape prefs and choos e your
variable and fixed fonts to be ttf and also choose "allow scaling" and
"use dynamic fonts". i use "Arial" for variable and "Courier New" for
fixed and my web pages look normal.
