I am not a software coder qualified.  Thus I am requesting for help on
this list.

Let me keep it simple and practical for you to start with.  Could you
tweek Ubuntu or Fedora by removing all their fonts from everywhere and
putting BBT and Rail Model font?

Like I said before I am not a software coder.  I  am a non-techie and
you I suppose are a techie.  This could be the source to your
perceptions/views about me or the project.

Sorry.  You get me wrong.  I am a newbie and a non-techie.  I want a
tweek to a big popular distro, they have the coding resources.  When
they improve their coding, then the new distro is also improved.  To
keep it simple and practical for you to start with, I wish to have
only certain fonts.  Once you do this we then move to the next stage.
