    Sorry if this question is closed...

    I found adding ttf fonts to Abiword (old version 1.0.7) on
    Mandrake 7.2 quite straightforward.

    First I copied the relevant files *.ttf into the
    /usr/local/AbiSuite/fonts
    directory (of course this might be different for you).
    And created a fonts.dir file in the same directory
    I also had to $ chmod a+w /usr/local/AbiSuite/fonts
    Contents of my "fonts.dir"

    6
    arial.ttf -ttf-Arial-regular-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1
    times.ttf -ttf-Times New-regular-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-2
    timesbd.ttf -ttf-Times New-bold-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-2
    timesbi.ttf -ttf-Times New-bold-i-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-2
    timesi.ttf -ttf-Times New-regular-i-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-2
    verdanaz.ttf -ttf-Verdana-bold-i-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-2

    Your fonts might not be central european (so change to iso8859-1)
    You can also put in more fonts if you must. See
    http://urtica.linuxnews.pl/abiword_pl.html for a larger example
    of fonts.dir (but you might not be able to use any of the other
    info on the page).

    Sorry if this is no longer relevant to abiword 2 or debian
    (oh yes, I had to put a new entry in my x86config file - if you
    get an error message ask and I will tell you what it is... this
    is in the abiword documentation too)
