Have you installed the fonts?  Try:

apt-cache search ttf font | cut -d ' ' -f 1 | xargs apt-cache show | less

Then install whatever looks useful.  Alternatively, just use synaptic to 
search for font or ttf :)

"foreign" fonts for X11 ?

2005-05-20 Thread Markus . Grunwald
Hello,

We have one SuSE (8.2 ?) machine here, where I can see all kinds of 
"foreign" fonts in X11 (e.g. chinese, japanese, greek and so on). I didn't 
manage to teach this to the new debian machines that I set up. We need 
this urgently, because our software is very international. Until now, we 
can test this only on this one SuSE machine, which I wantet to turn into a 
debian machine soon...

Could you help me find out why my debian machines cant display "foreign" 
fonts ?

Many thanks,

Markus Grunwald
