ardhill 1 month ago	4	In reply to the other comment about not woring on Linux Miint 19. I am using Mint 19 Cinnamon and it installed (with suggested dependancies) with no problems. I have used th Arial font a few times in text programmes, not yet in others eg graphics or DTP etc yet. No problems so far, all appears to be good for me.

John_Lost 8 months ago	2	Not working on my computer: LinuxMint 18 (Sarah) XFCE - even after having type "sudo fc-cache -f -v" (thanks by the way!) What worked instead: using the more recent corresponding deb file on this community forum page: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=229085

j03k3rr 3 years ago	3	Ok installed. How can I make sure they're in use? Some websites still using ridiculous fonts in Firefox. I mean website doesn't look same as it is in Windows and Mint. In Mint it's just using different font. Site I'm talking about is Feedly.

tionigel 3 years ago	5	It works. Fonts like Times New Roman, Arial and others like these are always a must-have and this is one of the first things users should be downloading.
signatux 3 years ago	5	Útil. Se añade a mi lista de fuentes en LibreOffice y también sirve para aquellos programas que se ejecutan con Wine. Debes aceptar la licencia de software (EULA).
luisbraganca 3 years ago	5	Microsoft should install Linux fonts, not Linux installing Microsoft fonts. But oh well... It works fine.

Saddletramp 4 years ago	5	Useful. Includes popular fonts.
FrogFan23 4 years ago	3	The package itself is excellent. Installation via Software Manager in Mint 13 (Maya) sucks! Follow the comments by hal8000 and peter2055 to install using Terminal. Flawless install their way!
Osirez 5 years ago	5	This is needed by various web sites and Wine applications. The installer works without a problem on Mint 16.
blulux 5 years ago	5	very very useful..
Gaius 5 years ago	5	A must download for websites to look as they should. However, you may want to use Synaptic to install this as Mint Software Manager has issues with getting the license to show up.
kyouzins 5 years ago	5	Been looking for this set of fonts.. I need this since other people are using these fonts
Ultimul_Mohican 5 years ago	5	Good font package.
vaheeds 5 years ago	5	thanx
peter2055 5 years ago	5	You need instructions on how to accept the EULA in the terminal window. Use the TAB button to highlight OK, then the SPACE BAR to accept it. Perfick!!
Gloria 5 years ago	4	Installato da Gestore software non funziona, installato da Gestore pacchetti funziona alla grande!
hal8000 5 years ago	4	You can auto accept license agreement with: sudo apt-get install -y ttf-mscorefonts-installer
ostamb 5 years ago	5	Worked flawlessly for me :-)
linuxmint208 5 years ago	5	after I installed it how to enable it ?
crazyrobinhood 6 years ago	1	I hate microsoft and those so called "standard" fonts.
librarygrrl 6 years ago	4	Works great, once it's installed. Had to use Terminal, and futz around to figure out how to accept EULA agreement. Better instructions would be a plus.
francheu 6 years ago	4	fontes utiles
xallalone 6 years ago	5	Охуенные шрифты. Один шрифт охуеннее другого!
Jamesc359 6 years ago	4	apt-get install --reinstall ttf-mscorefonts-installer
roblav96 6 years ago	5	nice!
millerkb 6 years ago	2	Nice idea, but it doesn't actually work, even from terminal (invalid operation).
r4pm 6 years ago	4	En "maya" tambien usar, "sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer" para aceptar el eula
malvi 6 years ago	5	A must-have. Installed from the software manager.
newpaul 6 years ago	4	Basic, if you want smooth compatibility with any document going to and fro with any ms system; yes, at the moment you have to go “sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer” at the Terminal; scroll down to get the Ok step at the EULA page and wait a little: it tends to stuck; [update: just keep scrolling & waiting for the ok button; enter; be patient; the yes/no buttons will show up at the very bottom; select & enter]
azomarja 6 years ago	4	Fuentes necesarias para tener compatibilidad con los contenidos realizados con softwares de Microsoft
raflance 6 years ago	4	You have to install this from terminal. software manager won't display eula that needs to be accepted. linux mint 12.
Kugel 6 years ago	4	You have to install this from terminal. Software Manager won't display EULA that needs to be accepted. Linux Mint 11.
umlopez 6 years ago	4	Son necesarias para mantener formatos de trabajo, ojo... lo tuve que instalar desde apt-get porque se necesitan aceptar el EULA y otro paso que no resuelve el gestor de sotfware LinuxMint 12

henriquemaia 7 years ago	4	It delivers what it promises. Miss the old Microsoft fonts? This is the right package to have them back.
MaTachi 7 years ago	4	More or less necessary on the Internet. No Verdana = No fun experience.
RavS 7 years ago	4	Should be installed by default I would say.
trollboy 7 years ago	4	Verdana is a must have if you are on the Internet... or at least it is if you're me :)
player0k 7 years ago	5	Cool!!!!11111
gianpv 7 years ago	2	It doesn't work on Katya11, open a terminal and write:" sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts". Then, you must accept EULA
rocker 7 years ago	4	ideal
mcduarte2000 7 years ago	5	Very useful to increase compatibility with documents produced in Windows.
valmar 7 years ago	2	Why use this when there are plenty of other free fonts out there?

bartjansen 7 years ago	4	Installing using the Mint Software Manager failed (no errors, but also no fonts). I removed it again using the Software Manager and running "sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer" did install the fonts correctly.
romanybob 8 years ago	3	Needed I supose! Hate to do it though... The above would not work. Use this command: sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer
grim 8 years ago	4	A must-have...
zata 8 years ago	4	Cannot install it by software manager, only work by terminal (sudo apt-get ttf-mscorefonts-installer). I think that b'cos we must read and accept the EULA things.
Rusty_nail 8 years ago	4	Полезная штука
alexanderbledel 8 years ago	4	Good!
dorylinux 8 years ago	1	ma per carità, ancora ci portiamo dietro i font di 20anni fà?!?
vdleviss 8 years ago	3	Not working( Installed manually, via apt-get...
Doruletz 8 years ago	5	A definite MUST HAVE. You simply need them if you want to be able to render ms-office made files correctly. The msttf are excellent for printing. Therefor I must agree with "modesthaus", it is a necesarry evil...
Elisa 8 years ago	5	Good and might be useful ;)
HolidayPenguin 8 years ago	4	very useful
premper 8 years ago	4	easy, necessary

x90126 8 years ago	3	This package was preinstalled but these fonts were not in the list. I removed package via Software Manager and reinstalled the old fashion way: sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer Restarted my application then it worked. Bug?
Jac978 8 years ago	3	To tell you the truth probably you will need it before longer.
Markeh 8 years ago	5	Just what I needed ^_^
jrunnels 8 years ago	5	wicked sick.
acpcalin 8 years ago	5	Great if you need compatibility!
Frank 8 years ago	3	The best fonts are Droid Sans, and it comes by default in Mint :)
vipek 8 years ago	5	Great package! Too bad it doesn't have Tahoma font...
Volshebnyi 8 years ago	4	Tahoma is much better than standart
PhrostByte 8 years ago	3	What can you say? It's Microsoft so it's not exactly the crown jewel of the FOSS world, but it's nice to have compatibility with Windows.
