This Oracle Solaris 11 release includes numerous updates to fonts available in the system and features a significant move towards using TrueType or OpenType font formats.
Many fonts come from open-source projects and are updated regularly, such as the DejaVu fonts, which are based on the well known Vera fonts. DejaVu fonts are the system's default fonts in many locales, as they are designed for use with Unicode.
Fonts are added to the system automatically upon the modification of locale facets. For more information, see Locale Facets. For installation of additional fonts using Package Manager, fonts are categorized in the System/Fonts.
