X FONTS

[Keith Meloy_1]

I have an application that requires a scaleable font
eg -agfa-univers-medium-r-normal-*-150-0-0-0-*-*-*-*
This font is available on all our normal 10.20 machines.
I have been asked to install the app on a standalone machine which, even though it is standard 10.20, does not have these fonts.
Because it is normally standalone, this machine cannot use a font server. I assume I need to copy something onto the new machine and run xset, but I don't know how to do it. Can anyone help?

Thanks

Keith

cp the font file for
-agfa-univers-medium-r-normal-*-150-0-0-0-*-*-*-*
to same directory on local system:
ie:

/usr/lib/X11/fonts/iso_8859.1/75dpi

then run:

mkfontdir

to create the fonts.dir

then

xset fp rehash

to update your xserver paths
