Arkpandora TTF - The MS Webfonts Replacement

Usability
Usability

Many people are still getting (by whatever means) the core MS fonts for their Linux Desktop. This project is meant to be as a replacement for some of these main fonts. They have been designed to match similarly with the fonts they replace. The fonts are derived from the Bitstream Vera fonts and are available under the same terms as Vera.

This pack is the Arkpandora font set.

First of all thanks for the great fonts. Now gnomedesktop.com renders very well without the ms fonts.

But there are some problems with Turkish specific chars in Tymes and Aerial.

The problematic chars are:

Basically, the ascents and descents are positioned wrong (a little to the left).

On the other hand, Veranda is okey with respect to those chars.
