 In fact, I'm far better off without arkpandora - Tymes is actually 
nothing like Times Roman (Luxi Serif is passable).  I thought I was 
doing ok without freefont, until I looked at a decent test page in 
konqueror - 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indo-European_languages

 (specifically, the links in the left column) and discovered I had 
nothing for hebrew and thai.  Installing freefont fixed that, so I guess 
it's useful (I now have what looks like plausible rendering for every 
glyph on that page).  I'm also using charis SIL, although I don't think 
it makes a difference to that particular page.
