We have an app that prints PDF files but some of the required TrueType fonts are missing on our AIX box. Does AIX support TrueType fonts? How can I install the following fonts?:
I have tried copying those fonts from my Windows box into /usr/lpp/X11/defaults/TrueType but I don't think that was the right way to do it and it didn't work anyway. I tried searching for filesets that contained these fonts but I wasn't able to find anything going down that route either.
Maybe I have to use "smitty font"? But where would I get a "*.nsf" font file?
