delete trueype fonts

[Gary Glick]

Howdy,
I am wondering what would be the proper way to remove these fonts from my system. We do not use X11 on this system and certainly do not need the Asian fonts.

pwd /usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType
ll
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 5 root sys 96 Nov 13 2003 chinese_s.st
drwxr-xr-x 5 root sys 96 Nov 13 2003 chinese_t.st
drwxr-xr-x 5 root sys 96 Nov 13 2003 japanese.st
drwxr-xr-x 5 root sys 96 Nov 13 2003 korean.st
gomail #

I'm mainly trying to cleanup a little space in /usr and these seem like the best candidates.

Thank you for any assistance.

#swlist -l file Fonts

should show all the files associated with that fileset. If this is indeed what you want to remove then:

#swremove Fonts

should do the trick. Worked on 11.23.

Here's what I got when I tried the swlist.
# swlist -l file Fonts
# Initializing...
# Contacting target "gomail"...
ERROR: Software "Fonts" was not found on host "xxoxxx:/".

I tried the following
swlist -l product | grep -i font
PHCO_17513 1.0 EURO printer fonts support
PHSS_17535 1.0 Font Server JAN 99 Cumulative Patch
PHSS_24937 1.0 Chinese-T TrueType fonts patch
PHSS_26972 1.0 Japanese TrueType fonts patch
PHSS_26974 1.0 Korean TrueType fonts patch
PHSS_26976 1.0 Chinese-S TrueType fonts patch
PHSS_28469 1.0 X Font Server Patch

I then ran swremove on the font patches which removed the fonts. I left the font server patches installed. Thanks for getting going.
