I am trying to install the open office suite using Add/Remove Software. It however give the following error:
Code:
dejavu-serif-fonts conflicts with dejavu-fonts
dejavu-sans-fonts conflicts with dejavu-fonts
dejavu-sans-mono-fonts conflicts with dejavu-fonts
if the dejavu updates are selected then updates fail. I uncheck the dejavu updates and everything else updates fine. Trying to update dejavu by themselves results in "no transaction to process" error. I was kind of hoping that this would be noticed upstream and dealt with, but after several update cycles the problem persists. I can't remove the dejavu fonts because half the software on the machine would be removed as well.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a folder with over 1500 fonts, I would like to move them to my /usr/share/fonts folder so that they can be used. Some are from Windows, some are just random extras. I've installed the msttcorefonts, but there are quite a few missing that make some wen pages look different.
How can I go about putting the fonts from my folder, into the appropriate /usr/share/fonts folder to be used? And how can I move them all? I can't drag and drop them, and mv FONT_NAME /usr/share/fonts for all of them will take a month or two. Is there a way to elevate my self to be able to just drag and drop them all? And which folder would they need to go into for them to be used in Chrome and Firefox?
I have OpenSuse 11.3/64 with OpenOffice and want to use some additional (ttf) fonts.
They install fine in KDE (configur desktop / fonts ) and are available in progs like Gimp. But Open Office doesn't recognize the new installed fonts. What am I missing here?
I have just installed openSUSE 11.2 X86_64 on my laptop, I then used KDE to install lots of type 1 fonts for my printer. These get loaded to /usr/local/share/fonts/...These installed fonts are visible to KDE (KWRITE) and GIMP so I assume that the installation was O.K. When I start openOFFICE writer I do not see these fonts. The font selection appears to be the fonts located under /usr/share/fonts. I have not tried other ooo3 components. I assume that they are not going to see the fonts either.
I have searched google and it appears that /usr/local/share/fonts is the correct location for non-packaged fonts. Has anybody any idea what is wrong? I think I could move all the fonts to /usr/share/fonts and ooo3 would work but this seems to break the installation directory structure. I have considered symlinks but I don't like the idea of defining a font twice to Linux and creating the syslinks is more work than reinstalling the fonts if they are lost
I activated a bunch of fonts through FontMatrix, which is a font manager I installed from the Ubuntu Software Center. The Font's were then available to me in inkscape, and a bunch of other programs. Now however I wanted to use some of those fonts in OpenOffice Impress (Presentation), but OpenOffice didn't seem to list the fonts.
Does anyone know how I can solve this. I'm assuming that one of two things is happening. Either OOo is not following the symlinks that are present in the .fontmatrix directory, or that openoffice is hard coded to not read fonts from any directory other than .fonts.
I'm running -current (13.37) 32 bit and have installed OpenOffice 3.2.1. The problem is the menu fonts in OpenOffice which look very thin and are not smooth. All other application fonts look very good. When I had this same version of OpenOffice installed on Slackware 12.2 I did not see this problem.In OpenOffice I have ticked the option to use system font for user interface but this doesn't seem to have any effect. I've also ticked the screen font anti aliasing option because the fonts look worse when this is not ticked. My KDE system font is DejaVu Sans, the same as it was on Slackware 12.2.
My OpenOffice package was built using a script written by Robby Workman which I think I got from his web site a long time ago. It takes the rpms and creates a Slackware package.
1. What do I need to set all the fonts to in 11.04 to make them look more like W7 fonts?2. Is there a way I can improve the graphics in WINE? Some very simple games run slow. Is there a way I can change the cursors in wine.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI reinstalled Fedora 11 last night because i saw that I could leave out packages that I don't need by unchecking everything in the software selection screen. Anaconda installed about 179 packages and I rebooted. I installed X, GDM, and LXDE, but whenever, I start GDM, all the fonts show up as random boxes, ie. there's no english on the sceen, just boxes. I'm pretty sure that i forgot to install a font that fedora uses for gdm but i don't know which one to install.

View 7 Replies View RelatedJust sharing some progress with font instalation in fedora 10, because there is no more support to xfs or chkfontpath. Take a look at /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, in the beginning of this file you can find:
Code:
<!-- Font directory list -->
<dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir>
<dir>/usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1</dir>
<dir>/usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF</dir>
[code]...
To install true type fonts, just throw your fonts in one of these directories. You can put it in your own home if you want (~/.fonts). With this, you can install any fonts, like windows fonts, mscorefonts ... Don't forget to restart X and test with fc-list.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI just installed Fedora 13 x86_64 using default settings (after not using Linux for few years), everything went well, but the following question bugs me: All fonts used by Fedora GUI on my LCD (1680x1050 native resolution) seem a bit blurred, stretched, not as crisp as displayed by Windows on the same LCD, and also worse than what I see on my Mac notebook. Fedora fonts use more screen pixels and at the same time provide lower subjective quality, it hurts perception of the whole system . I wonder if it's a general problem with Fedora fonts quality, or I can tweak it somehow to get more aesthetically pleasing results.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI've downloaded some new fonts and want to play with them. I know that I could simply add them to ~/.fonts, but I'd like to do it right, and make them available system wide. (Yes, I know I'm the only user, but I'd like to learn how to do it on a multi-user system.) I've looked in /share/fonts and seen a number of folders containing font groups, but each of these fonts is complete in one file. Should I just dump them into /share/fonts or should I make a special folder, let's say /share/fonts/custom and install them there?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've read a number of posts [URL].. that state that the Microsoft fonts, formerly msttcorefonts, but now (supposedly) called ttf-mscorefonts-installer should be available in Synaptic Package Manager.
Neither is present in mine- I am running Lucid Lynx 10.04 and I have both font multiverse and universe enabled; althoguh, the wiki link says I should see hundreds, but I only see about 30 total in all 3 font repositories. So I then tried apt-get tff-mscorefonts-installer and I got the following error: E: Invalid operation ttf-mscorefonts-installer
What gives? Is this package no longer available? Should I be looking in some repository other than Font?
I am trying to install Python and during the installation the system returns "dejavu-sans-fonts conflicts with dejavu-fonts". I would imaging that removing one or other of these font packages will resolve the issue but don't understand how to do that.

View 14 Replies View RelatedJust have upgraded from Fedora 11 to Fedora 13 and now fonts in KDE are too large, so my 1280x1024 desktop resolution seams like much lower. Such apps like Thunderbird, Firefox, Opera and others have their own font settings, but they affect only on text inside browser or e-mail. All menus, toolbars and other elements are big. Other apps which don't have own font settings have all fonts big. I tried to change font sizes in system fonts parameters, set all them to 10, but no any effect. It's especially inconvenient in Thunderbird, because it has big fonts not only in menus, but also in names of all folders and even in messages subjects. Only message text itself is customizable in its settings.

However, when I have them installed, a few sites here and there like Facebook will use the font, but it'll be fuzzy, which is the complete opposite of what the free fonts did for me.
