Bug Description

Binary package hint: ttf-liberation

The ttf-liberation is a useful font collection to provide a better compatibility for document layouts made for windows.

That is useful for the web and office documents. This is also very good for other uses as the default Ubuntu font collection.

Some people are already using liberation fonts for layouts and setting the MS fonts as the failsafe. That is easy on web pages and SVG documents (by Inkscape), may be on ooffice too. On my workplace that was useful for Scribus too.

So, will be very useful for the users to have this installed by default, because they don't know that they need it.
