Installing fonts from cd collections is a pain. Individually adding them is TOO
slow. Answering all the questions is daunting when you know little about the
terms for the fonts. Adding the AFM file should be exactly the same file except
swap PFB for AFM.
It should be easy to install fonts from a collection. A question to ask is
should their be psuedo-debs that can take a particular known cd of fonts and
just install them or something like that with all the default values for fonts.
Beyond this installing fonts by whole directory should as simple as 'add this
directory' with very few questions asked of the user.
This is brought about the LONG and PAINFUL adding fonts from the Bitstream 500
font collection CD I own. I am willing to help with usabilty assements of
making changes to the way fonts are added to the system.
