<para>Click on the tools icon above the group list and select the <guilabel>Scan For Duplicate Fonts...</guilabel> tool, a simple tool that will scan your system looking for fonts that have multiple files associated with them. For example, if you have <quote>times.ttf</quote> and <quote>times.TTF</quote> installed in <quote>/usr/local/share/fonts</quote> the underlying font mechanism (called <quote>FontConfig</quote>) will only see one of these. So, if you un-installed the font, it would re-appear, as only one of the files would have been removed. Running this tool will produce a dialog listing each font that has multiple files, and the corresponding list of files. To select a file for deletion, click on the column containing the trash can icon.</para>
