[maemo-developers] R: R: R: Firefox does not render 'font-family' style attribute...

[From: Marco Solari]

Yesterday I did install FBReader (the ebook reader application), and it did
the trick: it installs a bunch of nice fonts; I didn't dig into licensing
details, but now I have a number of nice fonts, on my N800:
  - Aaroni CLM
  - David CLM
  - DeviceSymbols
  - Drugulin CLM
  - Ellinia CLM
  - Frank Ruehl CLM
  - MHeiGB18030C-Medium
  - Miriam CLM
  - Miriam Mono CLM
  - Monospace
  - Nachlieli CLM
  - NewCourier
  - NewTimes
  - Nokia Sans
  - Nokia Sans Cn
  - Nokia Smiley
  - Sans
  - Serif
  - SwissA
  - Yehuda CLM

You can't distribute them prepackaged. That's why some distributions have
dummy scripts which download and install the MS fonts from their site.

	If you want more fonts, you may try installing the ttf-dejavu
package.
	It does not contain "arial" or "times", but contains a serif, a
	sans-serif and a sans-serif mono font (the whole font family is
called
	DejaVu).
	
	For Microsoft fonts, it should be possible to prepare a package from
	the so-called "Microsoft Web Fonts" which are kind of semi-free, but
	one must look first into their license very carefully, if it's
allowed
	to re-distribute the repackaged fonts.
