--- Comment #3 from [email protected] ---
The fonts described in the article are the fonts I installed. The most current
files for Linux users are the ones Microsoft provided in the "Core Fonts for
the Web" and are from the year 2000.
The Liberation and Croscore fonts, which are metrically compatible, still work
like they should. But once the user installs the core fonts (a lot of packages
on Linux have them as requirement) the layout in a lot of documents will be
broken. This is a huge interoperability issue, since these are the newest
fonts the average Linux user gets. Documents with Times and Arial are still
very common when sharing with others or when the user needs to edit old
documents.
As far as I know the new layout engine is based on the one the Linux builds
have since 4.1, so there shouldn't be a change in behavior.
