Dear All,
I'm a novice at Debian and I would like to know how we can install the mingLiu.ttu font onto Debian(Sarge v.3.01r). I've installed Perl by running "#apt-get install libft-perl".
However, when I tried to run "#defoma-hints truetype mingliu.ttc > ttf-mingliu.hints", I got error message "Segmentation fault".
Could somebody give me a hand?
Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards,
Eric

Thanks a million again.
