Problem with true type fonts and Netscape

Post by Daniel Du » Wed, 03 Feb 1999 04:00:00



I installed xfstt and I am trying to use true type fonts with Netscape.

If I chose from the options times-new-roman size 15, everything goes
fine, but if I close and open Netscape again, Netscape "forgets" that I
chose size 15 and it uses the default size (I think 12).

Does this happen also to you?

Is it Netscape's or xfstt's bug?

thanx

daniel

1. adding true-type fonts to Netscape

I got  Redhat 6.2 and am able to use Netscape 4.72 on it.  The fonts on Netscape  are small and
blurry.  Changing the Preferences doesn't  do anything.  I was informed that I have to get some
true-type fonts in a subdirectory (I call it ttfonts) withinin this subdirectory:

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts

I did that and downloaded a few true type fonts from the microsoft font website:

www.microsoft.com/typography/fontpack

These are .exe files and when I try to run them, then wouldn't unpack them, they wouldn't do it.

What am I missing?

Thanks for any help.
