[Bug 66833] Re: Gnome offers no way to manage fonts

[Robert Persson]

Sorry, I hadn't seen Jeff Greene's comment when I made my last comment.
I have just tried going to fonts:/// in Nautilus, but it doesn't offer
any obvious ways to do anything. For instance I tried dragging and
dropping a font file into the window, but it didn't stick, not even when
I did it is root.

What one needs to be able to do is to enable or disable whole groups of
fonts at a time. You also need to be able to work out how to do this
without anyone telling you. I would have expected to find a font manager
in the System-->Preferences menu on the Gnome top bar. It is not
reasonable to expect a novice to do Go-->Location... "fonts:///" without
reading a manual.
