Fonts disappeared!

Beginner

Tuesday, September 2nd 2003, 3:01pm

I'm not sure what I did, but I had just been generally configuring KDE yesterday--themes and such--and last night, I noticed that my fonts were ugly. They have changed in everything: KDE menus and apps, non-KDE apps, Konsole.... I tried to change them back, thinking that the settings were off, but Sans and Monospace (the fonts I was using) are no longer in my font list! Here are the files I have; can someone post theirs to see how they compare?
