Hi, Thanks for the tips! But now a real example. I've downloaded a font file called: PlymouthRock 'SnowDusted'.ttf, (Just a nice font to write Christmas cards; view it with Konqueror!) and put it into texmf-fonts/tex/truetype/plymouthrock/snowdusted directory. But what to do next is unclear to me! Frankly speaking, fonts are a very delicate and tricky aspect of TeX, which I've never understood, despite all the available documentation, sorry!
