[ale] Yet Another Font Question

[Ryan Bridges]

I'm not sure what the Wordperfect and Star Office fonts are, but I know
the answer to your gimp questions.  There is a program called Type1Inst.
If you use this on your font directories then (and from my experience ONLY
then) will your freefonts work with gimp.
