When you install Ubuntu Linux and fire up an application that uses fonts like OpenOffice.org, you might notice a lot of fonts that don't seem to do very much. For some reason, the developers of Ubuntu install a lot of non-English language fonts by default.
To get rid of these fonts, go to the top menu bar and click on SYSTEM | PREFERENCES | SYNAPTIC PACKAGE MANAGER.
Search on "ttf".
Find the fonts for various languages that are installed, click on the green box, and mark them for complete removal.
That will get rid of the fonts that English speakers typically have no interest in and de-clutter the font menus in Gimp and OpenOffice.org.
