There are numerous methods, but the simplest one would be for you to copy
the "hundreds and hundreds of fonts" from your Suse distribution and put
them into a directory called ~/.fonts (dot fonts in your home directory).
Thanks for the tip. I've found a dir on the old SuSE drive '/usr/share/fonts'
I copied its contents with a cp -R so I got all the dir's into my local FC6
drive into /usr/share/fonts.
However when I start openoffice I dont see the new fonts. Any thoughts? Did I
miss a step?
Thanks in advance...
