Microsoft Fonts on Linux

December 28th, 2003 · No Comments · technology

I have a rather old Shuttle small form factor PC running Redhat Linux. The graphical display have always looked aweful for some reason. I had a similar Redhat running on my Thinkpad and the display looks much better. The fonts on the Shuttle always look bad. Almost after a year I found this article which described how to legally install Microsoft truetype fonts on RedHat. After the install the fonts look much better in my browsers.
