Hello,



I use FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p1 i386 with custom kernel, xfce4 for gui and
firefox

(everything is installed using ports) for my desktop computer. I recently
found this

article
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/el_GR.ISO8859-7/articles/greek-language-support/a
rticle.html,

applied the settings and installed 'ports/x11-fonts/urwfonts' and everything
is in Greek now.
Try to install 'ports/x11-fonts/webfonts' too.
I am very happy listening that my article helped you.
I

have a problem though when viewing web pages that are encoded with el_GR,
there are spaces

among the letters and it is really ugly. Well, these spaces existed before
making the changes

that the article suggests.



Does anyone know how I can fix this?



Thanks in advance, Dimitris.
