<li><em>Fonts I added to Tux&nbsp;Paint only show squares</em>
<p>The TrueType Font you're using might have the wrong encoding.
If it's 'custom' encoded, for example, you can try running it through
FontForge
(<a href="http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/"
>http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/</a>) to convert it to an
ISO-8859 format. (Email us if you need help with special fonts.)</p>
<li><em>The Rubber Stamp tool is greyed out!</em>
<p>This means that Tux&nbsp;Paint either couldn't find any stamp images,
or was asked not to load them.</p>
<p>If you installed Tux&nbsp;Paint, but did not install the separate,
optional "Stamps" collection, quit Tux&nbsp;Paint and install it now.
It should be available from the same place you got the main
Tux&nbsp;Paint program. <i>(Note: As of version 0.9.14, Tux&nbsp;Paint
comes with a small collection of example stamps.)</i></p>
<p>If you don't want to install the default collection of stamps,
you can just create your own. See the <a href="README.html">README
documentation</a> for more on creating PNG image files, TXT text
description files, WAV sound files, and DAT text data files that
make up stamps.</p>
<p>Finally, if you install the stamps, and think they should be loading,
check to see that the "nostamps" option isn't being set.
(Either via a "--nostamps" option to Tux&nbsp;Paint's command line, or
"nostamps=yes" in the configuration file.)</p>
<p>If so, either change/remove the "nostamps" option, or you can
override it with "--stamps" on the command line or
"nostamps=no" or "stamps=yes" in a configuration file.</p>
