Yes, that's true. Unfortunately I hadn't had the time to look into it. It's one of my todos on my list. Patches are welcome. :-) > Does anybody know if there are really free fonts that can be used > instead of the agfa-fonts (Note: we need ISO-8858-5 and ISO-8859-15 > or UTF-8) ? You could try the DejaVu or LinuxLibertine fonts. However, you will soon hit the problematic field of typography: As far as I know, LinuxLibertine has only a serif font, they are working on a sans serif at the moment. DejaVu is rather complete and have serif, sans serif, and a monospace font. The monospace font is a bit too wide in my point of view. > ...and how to overwrite the settings in the susedoc package with > that fonts? Try to set the environment variable FOP_CONFIG_FILE.
