Connecting Fonts to program


Recommended Posts

Pardon my ignorance if I'm asking an unanswerable question here.

 

I have this nice little java program called DimSum, which requires Chinese Fonts.

 

I have all the appropriate fonts on my machine, but the program insists that it can't find them. Is there some kind of simple way of connecting these fonts to the program or is there none? It presents a warning saying "GB Characters are not available. Load font?"

 

As I've said, I have the fonts available (I use them for editing texts in Open Office).

 

Any help appreciated.

Never mind.

 

Found an error message in my Terminal referring to a font directory in the /usr/java section. Copied some font files to it, and zaap! It works!

 

Don't worry, I'll probably have some silly question later on to make up for it.

 

Which reminds me, after all the fussing and fretting about trying to get java connected the other day, every time I turn on a terminal, I get the following message:

 

bash: /etc/profile.d/java.sh: Permission denied.

 

This is followed by the normal prompt.

 

Anyone tell me what I did wrong, or at least how to fix it?
