Hi :)
Ok, in Ubuntu 10.04 it's probably easiest to use the Synaptic Package Manager
System - Administration - Synaptic
because it allows you to get specific components of programs and things. The
command-line might not be immediately obvious and the Software Centre is more
about entire programs rather than add-ons and stuff.
Use either search-tool to find
ttf-mscorefonts-installer
or the slightly older name
msttcorefonts
Installing either of those gives you about 6 of the basic MS fonts. You have to
agree to their EULA this way and the fonts are just the basic MS ones; Arial,
Times New Roman, Verdana, Comic Sans errr & i think webdings(?!).
I think Webmaster at Kracked Press has a huge variety of each of those on
copy-left agreements (OpenSource, Free ones) and could help you put them in the
right place. One of the advantages with the packages i mention is that they
look exactly the same and have exactly the same names in Windows, also the one
package does all the work for you to get all 6 sorted fairly neatly.
Regards from
Tom :)
