MADHATter7 12-22-2000, 11:55 AM Originally posted by mangeli: Thats for the web only though..... Yes, you are right... it's been awhile since I've used it. If you want true-type fonts available to all apps (a good idea), follow mangelli's advice. If you just need them for Netscape, use the web-fonts link... Sorry for the confusion, I will go to my corner now.... http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/redface.gif mangeli 12-22-2000, 12:14 PM Originally posted by MADHATter7: Yes, you are right... it's been awhile since I've used it.

I was mearly pointing that out in case he wanted fonts for more than Netscape... ------------------ http://www.tinyminds.f2s.com SlackHacks Forums (http://www.slackhacks.f2s.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi) Shad 12-22-2000, 02:47 PM Of course for MDK 7.1 or later, just use DrakFont. If you keep your fonts on a Windows partions and are like me (with over a thousand fonts that I never use) it will slow down your boot process a bit. ------------------ Just a Tuna in the Sea of Life DutchPenguin 12-22-2000, 07:00 PM Thanks guys, i just used the Drakfont option...allthough i had to get the fonts from the windowsbox over the network but i did it !! ------------------ DutchPenguin ?
