Jennifer,
Did you download the update DrakFont? After downloading I selected
Configuration->Other->Drakfont. Click on the "Get Windows fonts" button.
Select "Install All" and click on the "Normal" button. Give it a moment
and you will have a lot of newer fonts. I have been using a combination
of Helvetica, Arial including Verdana and it looks good.
