I have just changed (fresh install) my main production system from 10.1 to 10.2 (Big Mistake!!! but that's another issue).
In the process of restoring my original OpenOffice.org configurations I noticed that many of the previously available fonts were not accessible, even though I had reinstalled all of them on 10.2. When I searched for the location of truetype fonts on the system, I found a hodge-podge of various, sometimes duplicated, truetype fonts installed (not soft links) in the following directories: /usr/local/share/fonts /usr/share/fonts/truetype /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype The OpenOffice.org configuration is easy to fix, but does anyone know why fonts are scattered around in this apparently disorganized fashion? Windows may not have a lot going for it, but at least application developers and users can be reasonably confident of finding all installed fonts in one known location. Dave
