Hi, Late last year there was a thread on r-help about installing Arial fonts on linux machines: http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02/archive/8548.html I too would like to use Arial fonts in some R plots created on my redhat machine. I've installed the TrueType fonts from http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/ -- there is now a directory /usr/share/fonts/msttcorefonts/ and xlsfonts reports

I'm using wine 0.9.7 from the extras repository on Fedora Core 4. I've installed a windows program using wine. The program works very well; however, the fonts it uses are ugly and difficult to read. The rest of my system (KDE) uses smooth, beautiful, anti-aliased fonts, and this windows program is the only exception. I read the FAQ on the wine homepage, and it says to copy the

First off, for those who have done some R&D on this with LiveZilla v3 series, kudos indeed. I noticed LiveZilla is at v4.0.1.2 now.

Potential issues that may be encountered (with or without solutions; with
