How do you add fonts to the system so every user can acess them?  I got the  
free fonts from cc.orst.edu and uncompressed and untarred them.  Then I copied  
them into /LocalLibrary/Fonts.  I assumed this was all I had to do, but the  
fonts didn't show up in any application.  I tried putting them in my own  
~/Library/Fonts directory, and they showed up for me, but not for anyone else.  

So, how do you make fonts universally available?

Thanks.
