Xmanager provides many fonts for X applications. When
installing Xmanager , you can select font packs to install
depending on the vendor of Unix server and your language.
Even though Xmanager includes many fonts required for
most systems and applications, you can still add new fonts. Thus,
this section explains how to install additional fonts, add a font
server and configure font options.
For more information about fonts, see Fonts .
