Where's the best place to start looking / learning about fonts in
Fedora?  I need to get more for use in OOo, GIMP, Inkscape and Scribus.

IIRC, all these apps just use fontconfig. So the method is documented in the release notes. Quoting

"Adding new fonts to the fontconfig font subsystem is more straightforward; the new font file only needs to be copied into the /usr/share/fonts/ directory (individual users can modify their personal font configuration by copying the font file into the ~/.fonts/ directory).

After the new font has been copied, use fc-cache to update the font information cache:

fc-cache <directory>

(Where <directory> would be either the /usr/share/fonts/ or ~/.fonts/ directories.)"
