Installing truetype fonts

[Joel Hammer]

I want to install some truetype fonts.

I have XFree86 Version 4.0.1 I have an old version of KDE. Version 2 or
something. This version of KDE came with Caldera 2.4. I cannot tell  for
sure because the about KDE menu doesn't give the version.

I have some true type fonts already installed, I think, made available
through fontfs.  But, these fonts don't seem to include anything useful,
like ariel.

I have a bunch of fonts from a windows installation I want to use.
Is there a way to just convert these to a form that I can reference
with fontfs?

Thanks,
Joel
