It will depend on your OS, Linux, MAC, Win, etc but if you follow the
standard method of installing fonts for your computer, GIMP should
recognize them. Might have to reboot, not sure.

Hi Mike -
Fonts aren't quite as intuitive (or maybe we're both just set in our
ways) as in GIMP-1.2.x, but here's how it works:
1. Double click on the text tool in the toolbox. This will give you
the tool's own dialog box, where you can set the font, the size, the
color, and the alignment of th

get free fonts. Since they come and go with alarming frequency,
your best bet is to do a search for something like "free fonts"
and see what you get. With RH 7.2 I think you already have a
