[users@httpd] fonts

Where does apache access the fonts it uses? - are these a part of the apache 
distro, or does it access the fonts on the system it is installed on?

Apache doesn't use any fonts.  Browsers use fonts.  The only influence
apache has on this is through the Content-Type header which sets a
mime-type and character encoding.  Other than that, it is between yoru
content and the browser.

You might have better luck asking in an html-authors forum if you are
trying to figure out how to use custom fonts with html.
