I was under the impression that you needed support in the X server as well. Could you run xdpyinfo on your system and look at what extensions are installed. >I'm still going to install the URW fonts and give them a go though :). They make Netscape look *much* better. The fontpath to use is: FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/URW" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi" This came from a message to freebsd-java last year. >P.S. the default font.properties is from the FreeBSD Java porting team. > Its based on the Solaris 5.5.1 font.properties that is in the > standard JDK 1.2.2 source if I remember correctly. It might be worth producing a third variant of font.properties that works for the standard fonts.
