Reichman" X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.0.36 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: True Type fonts and Altavista Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Can someone please tell me what kind of font Altavista is using on their web page? No matter what true type fonts I load up and use under the S3.xtt X server, I cannot get the page to render nicely. The only thing I can figure, is that altavista is using a font that is not a standard windows install font? Or, the font they are using is somehow aliased correctly under windows to another installed font but my X installation is not aliasing it correctly to a font that I have. Currently I have no fonts.alias dir in my TrueType dir. I notice the /misc dir does have fonts.alias file. Do I need a fonts.alias in my TrueType dir to solve this problem with Altavista and what font are they using?
