First verify if the above works for your user account. Second have a look at these: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Font-FAQ Answer: easiest way is to add them to follow the 'Manually' section in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts#Manually. Don't forget to run 'sudo fc-cache -f -v'. The same method used for Ubuntu will work for Debian. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
