hi guys,
Some guys at my univ are trying to intergrate regional
fonts (hindi etc) in linux distros and then distrubte
them as live CD's.
My first query is how do we go about integerating
fonts in linux and secondly, we all are kinda fans of
knoppix..so we are thinking of integerating it in
knoppix itself.
Is it possible???
appreciate you help in advance
