Hi Teemu,
fonts.dir should be in the directory path which you have mentioned in
the config file of Nano-X. as for example:
####################################################################
# TrueType font support thru FreeType 1.x
####################################################################
HAVE_FREETYPE_SUPPORT = Y
INCFTLIB = /usr/include/freetype1
LIBFTLIB = /usr/lib/libttf.a
FREETYPE_FONT_DIR = "fonts/truetype"
fonts.dir file contains name of font file, encodings and font attributes.
You need to edit that file for your font. This file should be in the
directory where your TTF font file is. To have a sample copy how to
write this file, go to the Nano-X's src/fonts/truetype directory.
there you will find fonts.dir.pseudoadobe file.
Thanks and regards,
Kirankumar
