The Font Database Editor/Viewer lists the font directories and X font servers available for the current X session. When an X application requests a font, the X server searches each font directory or X font server in the font database according to the order they are listed. To reduce the amount of time it takes to find a match, place the font directories/X font server(s) containing the most commonly requested fonts at the top of the list.
If you open this dialog box from an Xconfig file for which you have only view access, you can view only the list of font directories and X font servers.
