That's where fetchmsttfonts might help. I presume it's really just a link to http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fontpack/default.htm. The only really new and good font you'll get is Comic Sans. The rest are just standard fonts or ones for web pages. There are thousands of fonts out on the web but, Philipp is right: most of them are useless. I only use four of about a hundred fonts that came with M$ windows software. Try searching for specific terms, e.g. Plantin and Gill (or Gill Sans) make a nice pair. Palatino (or Book Antiqua) is nice. The B&H Lucida fonts are nice. They may come with StarOffice or Java. What you probably won't find are unusual but well designed fonts such as the London Underground font. JDL
