The <guilabel>Get New Fonts</guilabel> entry in the tool button (located above the group list), allows you to install fonts from the Internet. The fonts downloaded in this manner will be installed into your <quote>Personal Fonts</quote> group. To install system-wide, you will need to move them to the <quote>System Fonts</quote> group - this may be achieved by dragging the fonts over the <quote>System Fonts</quote> group entry and will require administrator privileges.</para> | 92 | <para>New fonts may be installed from local files, or downloaded using <guilabel>Get Hot New Stuff</guilabel>.

| 100 | <para>Click on the tools icon above the group list and select the <guilabel>Scan For Duplicate Fonts...</guilabel> tool, a simple tool that will scan your system looking for fonts that have multiple files associated with them. For example, if you have <quote>times.ttf</quote> and <quote>times.TTF</quote> installed in <quote>/usr/local/share/fonts</quote> the underlying font mechanism (called <quote>FontConfig</quote>) will only see one of these. So, if you un-installed the font, it would re-appear, as only one of the files would have been removed. Running this tool will produce a dialog listing each font that has multiple files, and the corresponding list of files. To select a file for deletion, click on the column containing the trash can icon.</para> | 100 | <para>Click on the tools icon above the group list and select the <guilabel>Scan For Duplicate Fonts...</guilabel> tool, a simple tool that will scan your system looking for fonts that have multiple files associated with them.
