EVALUATION Name: nl37777 Date: 04/23/2004 Font configuration files for Tiger have already been added under 4906936, so this request applies to 1.4.2_xx only. ====================================================================== Note that this was never a supported configuration so this is an RFE. ###@###.### 2004-04-23
