PostPosted: Tue Feb 28, 2006 1:05 pm    Post subject: Extreme Newbie--Adding Fonts Manually

I'm very new to UNIX programs, so my question is VERY basic. I am running OpenOffice 2.0 on Mac OS X. I am trying to manually add some true-type fonts to the share/fonts/truetype folder as I've read in the FAQ's, but I don't know how to actually access that folder. I've looked inside Tools/Options/OpenOffice.org/Paths (from the pulldown menu in an open document), and from there I can sort of navigate around until I see this folder, but I can't seem to add anything to it.

Can someone give me a step-by-step instruction on how to truly access the share/fonts/truetype folder and how to add a particular font into it?

Many thanks.

to get to that folder you have to open the .app file. for a mac, a .app is both a file and a folder.

right click on the openoffice.org file and select "show package contents" this will open it like a folder.
