-### CORE FONTS
+### FONTS (WITH CORE FONTS)
There are two ways of adding fonts, with __Fontconfig__ or with __X__ core fonts. The next deals with core fonts.
* Fonts can be added to the database on _"/etc/X11/xorg.conf"_ or in the separate file _"/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/fonts.conf_".
* Supported font formats are _BDF_, binary _PCF_, and _SNF_.
* Scalable fonts must appear in the font path before the bitmap fonts when possible.
+* You can query the current _font paths_ (along with other information) by using __xset__:
+`xset q`
__STEP 1__: Create a font directory with font files and index files.
* If there are scalable fonts you might first need to correctly name them index first:
`mkfontscale ~/.fonts`
* To properly create a font index file:
`mkfontdir ~/.fonts`

+Some files are creat with this:
* The _fonts.dir_ lists the available fonts in this directory.
* The _fonts.alias_ provides aliases.
