6<para>The configuration file for <application>Fontconfig</application> is <filename>/etc/fonts/fonts.conf</filename>.
7Generally you do not want to edit this file. To put a new font directory
8in the configuration, update the file, <filename>/etc/fonts/local.conf</filename> with your local
9information. The default location of fonts in
10<application>Fontconfig</application> is:</para>
11<itemizedlist spacing='compact'>
12<listitem><para>/usr/share/fonts</para></listitem>
13<listitem><para>~/.fonts</para></listitem>
14</itemizedlist>

16<para>Because we have not built <application>XFree86</application> yet, put the following directory entries
17into <filename>/etc/fonts/local.conf</filename>:</para>
18<itemizedlist spacing='compact'>
19<listitem><para>&lt;dir&gt;/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF&lt;/dir&gt;</para></listitem>

27and all subdirectories for needed fonts.</para>

30<note><para><application>X</application> also includes an internal (and
31older) version of <application>Fontconfig</application>
32and unless it is explicitly disabled when building
33<application>XFree86</application>, the internal
34version is created leaving two slightly incompatible libraries on your system.
35It is recommended that you only install one version.</para></note>
