Could someone post a copy of > their XftConfig file as an example of how to add font libraries to Gimp? I will say it again: GIMP-1.3 does _not_ make use of X11 to render fonts. It thus doesn't make any sense to restart xfs since the font server is not involved at all. Adding the font directories to /etc/X11/XftConfig should do the trick. Here's an example line: dir "/usr/local/share/fonts/TrueType" Please note that you need scalable fonts, not necessarily TrueType, but scalable. Salut, Sven
