Truetype for Fedora Core 3 Avalible?


Hi!, I am looking for truetype for Fedora Core 3 or any other type of font package so that I can render fonts similar to Windows XP such as Times New Roman Etc. I find that the fonts in XP are easier to read and clearer. Anyone have any links or suggestions. Thanks

If you have any friends who run Win XP, just ask them to copy the ttf from their fonts folder to a CD and then you can copy them to your Linux system.
