Newbie with a font question

This is a discussion about Newbie with a font question in the Linux Software category; Hi, I am still learning Linux (Mac and Windows are my previous experience). I tried installing the Macromedia Flash player and it is not working. I am guessing it is because of this: Quote:Device fonts require outline fonts to be installed.

Hi, I am still learning Linux (Mac and Windows are my previous experience). I tried installing the Macromedia Flash player and it is not working. I am guessing it is because of this:

Quote:Device fonts require outline fonts to be installed. This is a change from Flash Player 5 for Linux. Some fonts to install:ttfonts
urw-fonts
Can someone please steer me right on this?

Thanks

LOL! I should have guessed! I've been fightin' Fedora now for two days trying to get the fonts to look right on a IceWM menu. I installed Falsh 6 on RH 9, Mdk 9 and Morphix and it didn't make any font complaints. I will try to install on this Fedora box I'm working on for my Mother and see what happens.
