[SOLVED] Language Removal

Post by clgrimm519 »

There are a ton of Fonts that make no sense to me. I want to get rid of them. How do I do that? Also, what would happen if I removed languages that I don't care about? I don't see any need for Arabic fonts and such. If this is answered in somewhere else please advise. Thanks so much for your help...

At first: The title of the thread is completely misleading. Language and fonts are quite different things. I would be surprised, if you have more than English and possibly your native language installed.

Removing fonts can be dangerous, if you remove too much. Better method is to disable not needed fonts. This can be done with font-manager. If you find, that something is missing, you can re-enable the needed fonts quite easily.
