Installing Microsoft Fonts on Linux
Ran into this document explaining how to install Microsoft’s TrueType core fonts on Linux. Ran through the instructions and it worked a treat on my Fedora Core 2 machine. Hopefully having the right fonts will help Firefox render some pages that it otherwise struggles with. From the page in question…
Features
- Does not distribute Microsoft’s fonts in a prohibited way (to the best of my knowledge that is)
- Doesn’t bypass the rpm database like other font install scripts
