Do you mean that freefont packages and plugin must be installed or using
current Bitstream fonts available in the current image could be used?


Then you need to create a LanguageEnvironment - there are examples in image.

Spanish LanguageEnvironment is already created in the image, and I can see
letters as ñ , ó, etc. if I open images that already contain those
characters or if I open a file containing it, but I can not type those
characters using the keyboard: Trying to type 'á' all I get is '?a'.

So, in brief, I've being testing this everytime a svn changes happens since
last september without any success, so, please, could you explain in more
details your steps, specially:
- image you used
- fonts you used
- use it without freefont package and freefont plugin

and assure that character with dead keys (accents) work in your keyboard?

Thanks for your info.
