Their sans-serif doesn't really substitute for all those sans-serif fonts, likewise for the serif and mono fonts. Try it and see for yourself. > They are already under review in Fedora now. Try it out. I did download the fonts. Playing with fonts is something I regularly do, trying to find a few really nice ones, usually. I've seen very few that actually do look attractive, most tend to be just functional. Having to deal with some pleb sending me a Word doc is also I have to do all too often. Without the right fonts, lots of things typed into documents by those who don't know what they're doing (e.g. those who think it's an electronic typewriter, and know nothing about typesetting; or that a Word Doc file is meant for storing a file to be printed, not for giving to someone else to read) end up with overlapping letters, or cut-off letters, in some parts of the page. I had thought about installing the MS Core fonts, but that brings about other problems: I don't want to see some of those butt-ugly fonts appearing elsewhere, by default (e.g. webpages, or documents that otherwise don't really need them). > The maintainers wouldn't be reading all the mails in the list.

The point I made wouldn't technically be a bug, other than re-writing the spiel about what it claims to do. -- (This box runs FC5, my others run FC4 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
