No. I am not familiar with the DocBook stylesheets, but it looks like they are just defining a base font to which variations can be applied within the stylesheet. The TrueType Collections refers to a font file format in which more than one logical TrueType typeface is stored in the same physical file. In the previous part of your post (not copied here) it sounded like your fonts were in .ttf format, which means that there is one logical font in each file, and you don't need to worry about the .ttc stuff at all. > i just want to be able to say, monospaced fonts are all now vera, and > have the appropriate variation (regular, bold, ...) chosen for that > rendering automatically. The DocBook stylesheet probably does this automatically. If it doesn't work properly, look at the intermediate fo file or the stylesheet itself to see what it is doing, and adjust accordingly (possible adjustments would be to the stylesheet itself, or manual adjustments to the font metrics file itself).
