i have had a heck of a time with fonts. for gimp-1.2 i suggest getting the gimp-freetype plug-in from http://freetype.gimp.org get 0.2. there is a configure button there that will find the fonts for you (i bet). i have yet to find ttf with the other text tools in gimp-1.2. good luck carol _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
