How to add fonts

Zeta includes a TrueType font renderer, which displays TrueType fonts in almost any size. The standard set of TrueType fonts included with Zeta is stored in /boot/beos/etc/fonts/ttfonts. These are the default system fonts; you should not change them.

You can purchase or download additional TrueType fonts in Windows (not Machintosh) format and add tem to Zeta:

Place the fonts in the /boot/home/config/fonts/ttfonts folder.


To tell Zeta to look at your new fonts, click the Rescan button in the Fonts window. Or just reboot; the fonts are automatically rescanned when you start up Zeta.

To add PostScript fonts, make a new psfonts folder in /boot/home/config/fonts, and put your fonts there. Rescan or reboot, as you would for TrueType fonts.
