FYI, on a Mac, most fonts live in:
/Library/Fonts/
except certain system fonts, which live in:
/System/Library/Fonts
Irrelevant to this discussion, but just for completeness: fonts
installed locally for a specific user are installed in:
~username/Library/Fonts

Looks like it does make a difference, unless we can find a way to get
and access the Palatino Font on Linux and/or MacOS. One ref on the

said that it was available on the Mac - but I don't have a mac, and
don't know how to set things up to access it. Palatino is the font
being used for the main documentation.
There are two files that contain the font configuration,
fop-config.xml and fontconfig.xml. They are almost identical.
Do we need them both? It should be easy to replace those
files with versions that work on other platforms. I have
no idea if fonts live in a standard place in linux (probably
not) and MacOS (probably). We might want to at least document
what people need to do to build the documentation on their
own platform. I do build on linux now and then, but I guess
I've never built the documentation there.

Does it makes a difference in the result if its build on a non-

os ?
