With my SuSE distro, I think I had to place some .ttl

I'm working with a Slackware distro which is very
hands on and has 
little to no focus on GUI admin. Do you know where I
can download 
the .ttl fonts to get it working?


Slackware doesn't seem to have a package, or even a
tutorial on using Hebrew fonts (afaik).This means that
you will have to locate the different parts and
install them yourself. The parts you need are
dependent on what software you are using. Most likely
you will need to download the fonts for KDE or GNOME
support first, and then download the font support for
mozilla (firefox). Finally you might need to get the
fonts for open office so that you can type documents
in Hebrew.  Each piece has to be retrieved from the
respective sites:

http://www.gnome.org

http://www.mozilla.org

http://www.openoffice.org

I hope this is helpful James.
