Hi
Perhaps this little script will help you. I developed it to deploy ttfs, It
will
be on my web site once it goes live...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
#This script adds true type fonts to your system.
echo "This script automates the process of adding true type fonts your
system"
if [ -d /usr/share/fonts/ttf ]; then
echo "Font directory already exists..."
else
echo "Making font directory..."
mkdir /usr/share/fonts/ttf
fi
echo "Copying from windows font directory...."
cd /usr/share/fonts/ttf
cp /c:/windows/fonts/*.ttf .
echo "Makinfg ttf fonts..."
ttmkfdir > fonts.scale
mkfontdir
#chkfontpath --list
echo "Adding font directory to fonts path...."
/usr/sbin/chkfontpath --add /usr/share/fonts/ttf
#/usr/sbin/chkfontpath --list
echo "Forcing a re-read to X server...."
xset fp+ rehash
/etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs restart
xset fp+ rehash
echo "All done..."
