Fedora 10 - Add new fonts

Greetings,

Just sharing some progress with font instalation in fedora 10, because there is no more support to xfs or chkfontpath.

Take a look at /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, in the beginning of this file you can find:

Code:
<!-- Font directory list -->
<dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir>
<dir>/usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1</dir>
<dir>/usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF</dir>
<dir>/usr/local/share/fonts</dir>
<dir>~/.fonts</dir>
Here is the right way (at least the way i think it is).

To install true type fonts, just throw your fonts in one of these directories. You can put it in your own home if you want (~/.fonts).

With this, you can install any fonts, like windows fonts, mscorefonts ...

Don't forget to restart X and test with fc-list.

Best regards,
Felipe
