Years ago I created a port of free fonts for FreeBSD. I've
updated the font list which is in Postscript form. Is there a
way I can add these font to OOo-2.02?
I also bought a truckload of fonts in TTF format as well as
Postscript. Is there a way of adding these fonts?
thanks in advance,

PS: I'm willing to share my port of fonts with OO.org; just drop
a line.
If you have them installed on your system (I'm assuming Unix or Linux?)
and your window manager is aware of them, OO will find and use them --
you did execute mkfontdir and mkfontscale in the font directories? You
may need type1inst for some PostScript fonts (Google is your friend to
find it). Again, assuming Unix or Linux, you have your font directories
listed in your xorg.conf file? Looks something like this:
Section "Files"
RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
ModulePath "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Adobe/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/myfonts/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
EndSection
And there is a fonts.dir and fonts.scale file in every font directory
(created with mkfontdir and mkfontscale whenever you add font files)?
Ought to be good to go.
