Once, long long ago, Microsoft released the 4 core fonts - Arial, Verdana, and 
two out of the serif fonts Courier, Times New Roman and Georgia - as free to 
use, free to redistribute. The intent seems to have been to allow developers 
to ship these fonts with their apps just in case the user didn't already have 
them.

That license has since changed, but the original license is still valid for 
anyone that received it. So those fonts are still freely available from anyone 
that chooses to mirror them.

Some from corefonts, others are probably copyrighted by microsoft.
Google for msfonts and msfonts-style and you can get RPM full of these
fonts but it's your decision whether or not to use them.

Thank you.

But if he doesn't have them installed, that command won't help him.  
That only works if the package is installed otherwise you have to ask 
someone who has it installed to check it.  Since he is looking for them, 
I would assume he doesn't have them installed.  I'm not sure how the 
corefonts package got missed tho.  I thought that was a system package.

I found a couple of those in media-fonts/corefonts.  You may want to 
install that and see what is missing afterwards.


Also, this site may be able to tell you what package some of the missing 
ones belongs to as well.

Hope that helps.
