Font: Fraktur?


Hi there!

I'd like to know what a nice looking fraktur-font for linux would be... under Win I like'd CloisterBlk and Eng.OldEnglish or something like that.

Does someone have an idea where I can find a nice fraktur?

Thanks, Sascha

I believe freetype2 supports ttf files no problem, which are which windows uses if I am not mistaken. Try to copy them to your box and re-indexing your fonts.
