RH 8 font problem

[Tim Wunder]

It might, but even so, it still doesn't explain why xlsfonts doesn't see the fonts I install :-(
I will play around with OOo tonight, regardless...
Assuming you're using RH8 and have some TTF's installed, care to send me a known good .ttf file for me to experiment with? You can send it off list if you have one. AFAIK, my ttf's are good (taken from a working Win2K installation), but...

Thanks, 
Tim
