[xep-support] Re: Where to put true-type fonts?

Thanks Kevin,

Is there a way to tell xep to use the systems fonts through the XEP
command line? In my case, I want xep to use fonts from
/usr/local/share/fonts

I suspect the way is through the -param argument, but there's no man
page installed to read about it:

$ man xep
No manual entry for xep
See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available.

Thanks again (and forgive my ignorance).

Jeff

$ xep -help
