Hi :)
That is strange and i'm sure "Webmaster at Kracked Press" has probably mentioned 
it before but it might be worth posting a bug-report about it.  It's a bit weird 
to have to keep copies of fonts in several different places.

I have a feeling that short-cuts (="links" in linux and perhaps Mac?) mightwork 
well but it's still weird and inconvenient.  

Regards from
Tom :)

I only referred to that as it shows making a ~/.fonts folder etc. Please
create and put the BakerSignet font in there & see if LO picks it up.

Not really, as I don't know what the astrisk is in '1152a___.*' - I know
of no fonts that are listed as .* Nor are there any fonts that use a
.atm extension. .atm is used for the Adobe Type Manager font
catalog/file & ATM fonts are generally Type 1 fonts with an .pfb, .afm
and .pfm (and possibly .pfa) files. So I'm still confused.

  The asterisk means multiple suffixes. In this case, 1152a___.afm,
1152a___.inf, 1152a___.pfb, and 1152a___.pfm. I mistyped afm as atm.

  Well, I guess LO is different from other apps in that it cannot see fonts
in /usr/share/fonts, but does in ~/.fonts. Very strange. Regardless, I will
make softlinks in ~/.fonts to the directories in /usr/share/fonts.

Thanks,

Rich
