[Leaplist] GNU/Linux fonts?

These fonts are NOT FREE, they are shareware. They want $5 to register 
your download, or $15 to send you a CD with their whole pile of stuff on 
  it. Since $15 gets you the whole set, I ASSUME the $5 price is for as 
many as you want.

Tried one, it's a standard TTF, picked it up in The GIMP immediately. 
OpenOffice doesn't see it, but I've had problems with OO finding fonts 
unless I reboot after installing the font anyway (installed Times New 
Roman, Ariel, etc. swiped off the Windoze partition, and it took a day 
or two before OO found them). Based on a sample of ONE, they should work 
fine in Linux.

Whether you choose to pay for shareware, well, that's up to you.
