Thanks to all whom helped me produce my first DVI file since I left college years ago!

I just have a minor issue.  I am trying to produce a document that is not in English and, other than punctuation, has no Latin characters.  Need I mention, the document was a few hundred pages shorter than I had expected.

I have a TTF file that has the characters I want to have.

I found some directories with TTF files in them,

for example:
./2008/texmf-dist/doc/fonts/fonetika/
./2008/texmf-dist/fonts/truetype/hoekwater/lmextra/
./2008/texmf-dist/fonts/truetype/public/belleek/
./2008/texmf-dist/fonts/truetype/public/itrans/
./2008/texmf-dist/fonts/truetype/arkandis/libris/

So I can copy the file into one of these directories, but how would I ensure that it will find/use it?
