MS truetype fonts

jchorn · 08-24-2006, 05:28 PM

As a previous user of Suse 9.3 and 10.0, I have installed 10.1 again in hopes of getting it working. One thing which I can't get is how do I install the MS truetype fonts. With the previous versions there was an update found in Yast called fetchmsttfonts which worked perfectly. Where can I find this and can it be installed on 10.1? Perhaps if I tried the one from 9.3 or 10.0?

Thanks for your help.

Run this script and it will download and install the fonts for you.

Once I download this script to my home folder, how do I run it?
