this as an email from a guy who hasn't read the
knowledge base article on fonts, please consider this:
Session started from windows 2000.
nxclient 1.5.0.
freenx 0.4.4
Everything works. Except that, many apps fail to find
fonts which are present in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/, 75dpi, misc etc.,
although they are in the path as show by 'xset q'. I
tried installing fonts from nomachine.com, didn't
help. I copied over the font directories from my linux
box onto windows 2000 machine, didn't help. It seems
as if nxwin is not reading "D:/Program files/NX for
Windows Client/usr/X11/lib/X11/fonts". All truetype
fonts work fine because they are probably supplied by
server because of RENDER.
Surprisingly, sessions started from another linux box
are able to find all the fonts (truetype as well as
others).
I would appreciate help with this problem.
Thanks,
Sunil
PS: following is a font from 100dpi directory.
$ java -jar Java2Demo.jar
