Want to support the following apps on some of our centos 4.2 desktops. Are yum-installable binaries/rpms available for CentOS 4.2 and which repository?

MS TrueType Fonts are no longer available, and there's a mess of licensing restriction surrounding them. Basically you can't get them anymore unless you know how to do it yourself.
See http://www.microsoft.com/truetype/fontpack/win.htm for details.
hmmm...so that means that sites that use them will not be rendered well on non-M$ desktops? Any open-source alternative projects coming up?
Any links on how to get them from your M$ system?
With regards. Sanjay.
Sanjay,
There were a few threads on installing the MS fonts just a short time ago on here. I installed them on my x86_64 box. Not trivial, but not really difficult either. Search the message archives and you should find them.
