On my Windows XP box, OOo shows "Times New Roman" font as being somewhat smaller than "Bitstream Vera Sans".

On my nice new I'm-going-overboard-with-this-open-software-stuff Debian (etch) box, the two fonts are about the same size -- which has messed up some presentations.

Luckily, I'll probably be giving the presentations on a Windows laptop, and if not I'll have time to change things around.

But:

Does anyone know why? Is there a way that I can find a list of the fonts that I can trust not to change size on me when I use GNU/Linux instead of Windows?

Thanks.

For what it is worth, I created a presentation for a job interview for my present job. This was done on Windows and presented on Windows. Guess what, the formatting was different. It wasn't a pleasant experience when trying for a new job. Again an issue between fonts and other little things between the two versions of Windows. No Linux or OOo involved.

MS core fonts is what is required to help.
