Re: Font problems



I found out my problem.  The permissions on the fonts were set so only root could read them.

I've been trying to install some TTF Greek fonts in debian.  I got them from my windows/fonts folder.
As a normal user, when I try to use this one font I added with defoma, abiword crashes.  OpenOffice.org doesn't even list the font.  If I run as root, abiword doesn't crash with that same font, and OpenOffice.org lists that font and 4 other greek fonts that I have sitting in a directory that is not loaded by X.  Those fonts are also no in defoma.  Anyone know why I might be having these problems?  I've spent about 3-4 hours trying to figure this out.  I've read a couple how-to's on installing TTF fonts.
Thanks,
Bob
