Comment:

 Hi, Actually, this workaround specified of putting the fonts in the bin
 directory, is the correct way of installing fonts for !MapGuide.  It does
 not know about other fonts on the system.  I'm closing this defect, but if
 you would like to fix it, I suggest changing it to an enhancement: MGOS
 should find fonts on Linux.

 Also, if you have documentation on how to handle fonts on Linux that shows
 that this enhancement is in fact possible, that would be helpful.
