Did you look here ? http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/ QUOTE An easy way to install Microsoft's TrueType core fonts on linux
Installing Microsoft's TrueType core fonts for the web on any rpm based linux box with TrueType support is now easy. The instructions below have been tested on various Red Hat and Fedora Core systems, but they are fairly generic so they should apply to any redhat-like linux distribution, such as mandrake or yellowdog. If you are running debian, please have a look here. If you are running suse, please have a look here
I did not try it personnally, because when I work with Linux I do not really care fonts... Another way of looking for that : QUOTE Hope this helped Yordan

I'm not a Linux user, so I don't know much about this. But I found this page that might be helpful to you: http://linux.org.mt/article/ttfonts. It shows you how to install fonts on Mandrake, RedHat, SuSE, etc. It looks pretty simple to understand.

GNOME makes it hard to install fonts. On Linux, you just type fonts:/ in Konqueror and then drag and drop them there. After rummaging through my machine, I found the proper path: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype xboxrulz

Strange Error When Trying To Install Fedora Core 9
(6) Hi all, I tried to install Fedora Core 9 in a VmWare virtual machine under WinXP. I downloaded the
DVD ISO image and proceeded with the installation. When the process was started since about a
minute, the following error did show: "The file evince-2.22.1.1-1.fc9.i386.rpm cannot be opened.
This is due to a missing file, a corrupt package or corrupt media" Fine, I told to myself,
let's download the ISO image again, this time from a different server, just in case. No joy,
same error. Tried another couple of times, each one using a different server for the download. Sa....

True Type Fonts In Linux
Installation/configuration required? (4) As I mentioned in the other thread , I installed Ubuntu last night, and I am quite happy with the

Is it as simple as copying the font files (.ttf) into a particular directory? Or do we need to
install or configure something? If it is simple as copying the required fonts to a particular
folder/directory, which directory should they be copied to? Edit: The fonts in Linux se....

it ! gnome 2.8 didnt quite work for me, but 2.10 (and the up comming 2.12) have me hooked. Ive even
