Possibly OT for some, but the following list of free fonts [1] was sent
to me.

A few of the descriptions and download pages are in German, but I could
figure out how to download them ☺
Now for a tip: To Install Fonts Under GNOME (2.10)
1. Open the “Font Preferences” dialog by selecting “Desktop→
Preferences→ Font”.
2. Open the “Font Rendering Details” dialog by clicking “Details…”.
3. Open the “Fonts” folder by clicking “Go to font folder” [2].
4. Drag the font-files to the newly opened Fonts folder.
Alternatively, at the command-line copy (or move) the font files to the
"~/.fonts" directory.
Both these methods will install the fonts for the current user. To
install the fonts for all users, root will have to place the files in a
globally-accessible location. Under Fedora Core 4 this is
"/usr/local/share/fonts"; consult the files "/etc/fonts/*conf" for
searched directories on your system.
---==---
1. Some fonts are free as in speech, some are free as in beer.
2. Steps 1–3 can be replaced by opening the location "fonts:///" in
the file manager; yes the Fonts folder is quite difficult to
find.
