+There are two ways to get TrueType fonts to work. The first is to pass
+the <option>-font</option> option to specify a TrueType font file on
+the command line. This option will be a good candidate to put in your
+configuration file (see the manual page for details).
+The second is to create a symlink called <filename>subfont.ttf</filename>
+to the font file of your choice. Either
+<screen>ln -s <replaceable>/path/to/sample_font.ttf</replaceable> ~/.mplayer/subfont.ttf</screen>
