By default, SUSE Linux Enterprise provides various fonts commonly available in different file formats (Bitmap, TrueType, etc.). These are known as system fonts. Users can additionally install their own fonts from various collections. Such user-installed fonts are, however, only visible and available to the corresponding user.
