You are welcome. BTW: I forgot to mention; after you install gfontview, do:
- Right click on the top panel Gnome panel (anywhere that is blank)
- Select Add to Panel
- Click on Application Launcher button
- Select Utilities
- You should see Font Viewer - click on it
- Click the Add button (lower right corner)
- Click Close button
And that's it. To view the Type1 and TrueType fonts you simply go to the
top Gnome panel:
Applications|Utilities|Font Viewer
