My font installation is probably royally screwed up (e.g. firefox and konqueror differ in how much they can render on certain pages), and I've still got all my ttf files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF, so it might be that I'm doing things wrong. BUT, for the fonts I added earlier this week (particularly dejavu, which fixed whitespace in gnumeric help, and the chinese font which made a major difference to a chinese web page) I only had to copy the fonts to that directory - I've stopped running mkfontscale and mkfontdir, and I haven't run fc-cache.
