Dear all,
  I am having trouble with Imagemagick.  I can use
import, convert commands but display is not working
correctly.  It gives error message.

[tonio at localhost Documents]$ display factoring.png
display: unable to load font
`-*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1'.
display: unable to load font
`-*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1'.
[tonio at localhost Documents]$ display Fedora\ 5\
x86_DVD.jpg
display: unable to load font
`-*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1'.
display: unable to load font
`-*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1'.
[tonio at localhost Documents]$


I guess helvetica fonts are not installed.  I went to
ImmageMagick website and found resources page

http://www.imagemagick.org/script/resources.php

and it has a file named type.xml which is not present
in 
/usr/share/ImageMagick/config/

[tonio at localhost config]$ ls
/usr/share/ImageMagick-6.2.5/config/ -l
total 28
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3846 Dec 11 07:24 coder.xml
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  979 Dec 11 07:24 log.xml
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5192 Dec 11 07:24 magic.xml
[tonio at localhost config]$

What can I do to fix this?

Has anyone also encountered this problem?

Regards,


Antonio
