I recently installed my first Ubuntu: 64 bit 10.4, alongside a tanked Windows XP SP3 install.
I COPIED the Windows TrueType and Postscript fonts into /usr/share/fonts under truetype and PS directories.
I installed Fontmatrix and FM sees all but a few of my fonts.
Nautilus, also can DISPLAY the fonts.
However, OO Write doesn't show Arial Narrow and quite a list of other fonts known to Fontmatrix.
ALL directory and file permissions in this set are rwxrwxrwx.
Any idea what I'm missing?
IS there any Fontmatrix documentation???
ONE font I especially wanted is one I had purchased, the PostScript font Alexa Std. It appears EVERYTHING sees it.
I DELETED a few files outright (as I browsed through fonts w. Nautilus - I KNEW I had a bunch of 'junk' fonts I wanted to cull, anyway) and Fontmatrix is unable to unlink them, it appears.
My primary concern is Arial Narrow as I use it frequently in Write TABLES.
