so are you saying for you it works well on Mac OS, but not on Linux?
Same system for both fonts. The first one had TTF and not ttf and I had not noticed. But it failed. I had not tried it with ttf. The second one I noticed had TTF and I changed it to ttf and it worked fine. I don't know if would work or not with TTF.
great news
yes they updated the font on 29 of december of 2010,
i tried the update and it works!!
so the previous font which i had downloaded in november didnt work on linux

never heard of this freetype thing ( i constantly discover how much i have to learn ) )
is this something that linux has , that can be updated, and which affects rendering of ttf fonts?
in any case the font works now after the december 29 update by dafont
now i have to see if for the other 3 fonts that dont work i can find updates like that also
FreeType 2 is a software font engine that is designed to be small, efficient, highly customizable, and portable while capable of producing high-quality output (glyph images). It can be used in graphics libraries, display servers, font conversion tools, text image generation tools, and many other products as well.
Note that FreeType 2 is a font service and doesn't provide APIs to perform higher-level features like text layout or graphics processing (e.g., colored text rendering, ‘hollowing’, etc.). However, it greatly simplifies these tasks by providing a simple, easy to use, and uniform interface to access the content of font files.
FreeType 2 is released under two open-source licenses: our own BSD-like FreeType License and the GPL. It can thus be used by any kind of projects, be they proprietary or not.

convert -list configure
Look at the line starting with DELEGATES, it should list freetype.
