Re: [CentOS] Truetype fonts

centos@911networks.com a écrit :

I am trying to install on a CentOS5 box http://www.mjmwired.net/resources/files/msttcorefonts-2.0-1.noarch.rpm then did an xfs restart, even an alt-ctrl-backspace.

The fonts are located in /usr/share/fonts/msttcorefonts/ with the owner root & 644.

I can't see them when I go to preferences > fonts.

I have another computer with CentOS5, the fonts are installed and I can use them w/o problem.

Any suggestion?

I usually copy over all the .ttf fonts from a Windows install. (C:\Windows\Fonts, free as in beer :o) ). Copy them to any subdirectory of /usr/share/fonts, say /usr/share/fonts/microsoft-cannibalized/ ... then run:

# fc-cache -f -v

That's it. Enjoy.
