    The Fonts dialog is used for selecting fonts for the <a href="ch03s06s07.html" title="6.7. Texttool">Text tool</a>.  It also allows you to refresh
    the list of available fonts, if you add new ones to your system
    while GIMP is running.
  </p>
      <p>
    The Fonts dialog is a dockable dialog; see the section on <a href="ch02s03s04.html" title="3.4. Dialogs and Docking">Dialogs and Docking</a> for help on
    manipulating it.  It can be activated in several ways:
  </p>
      <div class="itemizedlist">
        <ul type="disc">
          <li>
            <p>    
        From the Toolbox menu:
        <span class="guimenu">File</span>-&gt;<span class="guisubmenu">Dialogs</span>-&gt;<span class="guimenuitem"><span class="accel">F</span>onts</span>.
      </p>
          </li>
          <li>
            <p>    
        Depuis le menu d'image :
        <span class="guimenu">Dialogues</span>-&gt;<span class="guimenuitem"><span class="accel">P</span>olices</span>.
      </p>
          </li>
          <li>
            <p>    
        From the Tab menu in any dockable dialog:
        <span class="guimenu">Add Tab</span>-&gt;<span class="guimenuitem"><span class="accel">F</span>onts</span>.
      </p>
          </li>
          <li>
            <p>    
        From the Tool Options for the Text tool.  If you click on the
      "Font" button, a Font-selector pops up.  In the lower right
      corner is a button that, if pressed, brings up the Fonts
      dialog. 
      </p>
          </li>
        </ul>
      </div>
      <div class="simplesect" lang="en" xml:lang="en">

        <p>
      In the Tab menu for the Fonts dialog, you can choose between
      <span class="guimenuitem">View as Grid</span> and <span class="guimenuitem">View as
      List</span>.   In Grid mode, the fonts are laid out in a
      rectangular array.  In List mode, they are lined up vertically,
      with each row showing an example of the appearance of the font
      ("Aa"), followed by the name of the font.
    </p>
        <p>
      V nabídce odrážky dialogu Písma můžete vybrat mezi zobrazením v režimu
      mřížky (<span class="guimenuitem">Zobrazit jako mřížku</span>) či seznamu
      (<span class="guimenuitem">Zobrazit jako seznam</span>). V režimu mřížky jsou
      písma zobrazena v pravidelné čtvercové síti, v režimu seznamu tvoří
      vertikálně seřazený seznam obѕahující ukázku písma
      <span class="guilabel">Aa</span> a jeho jméno.

            </div>
          </div>
        </div>
        <p>
      The most basic thing you can do is to select a font by clicking
      on it:  this font will then be used by the Text tool.  If
      instead of clicking and releasing, you hold down the 
      left mouse button with the pointer positioned over the font
      example ("Aa"), a window showing a larger text example will
      pop up ("Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.").
    </p>
        <a id="gimp-font-refresh"></a>
        <p>
      Pressing the button at the bottom of the dialog causes the
      system font list to be rescanned.  This may be useful if you add
      new fonts while GIMP is running, and want to make them
      accessible for the Text tool.  You can also cause the font list
      to be rescanned by right-clicking in the font display, and
      selecting "Rescan Font List" from the menu that pops up (it is
      actually the only option in the menu).
