How does JEdit find available fonts under *nix?

Submitted by pachanga on Wednesday, 5 October, 2005 - 08:02

Guys, i'm switching from windows to Debian 3.1 and having different little yet annoying issues trying to make JEdit operate exactly the same way as it does on my XP box.

I'm almost there but there's one problem which i can't resolve myself - fonts.

For some reason JEdit doesn't show fonts i copied from XP while KDE and GNOME have no problems with that. What can be causing this?

I'm using JEdit 4.2 final with j2sdk-1.4.2.06...
