If you have access to Humanist fonts [521, 777, 970], they make a good
substitute for Calibri, but they may be just slightly taller.  They have
"Light" versions that can be used.

Any good Humanist style of font might work, if you cannot get Calibri
Light working properly.

Actually there a a lot of great looking fonts out there that are free,
but sometimes you might have a "paid" font installed by some package
already that could work for you.  Since Calibri is a "humanist font" I
would look at any of them first.
