I'm not certain to even ask the right question here, but here I go.
Apparently, there are certain web pages that require specifically
Arial and look like sh*th on Firefox. Since there is no Arial on
FreeBSD and since I'm aware of the copyright and patent issues which
prevent copying and displaying (correctly) Arial and other TTF fonts
from Windows boxes, I was wandering is there a way to make firefox
choose Helvetica instead of Arial and say Times New Roman instead of
Tahoma and so on ... The Fonts dialog on Firefox seem to only
address the choice of default Serif, Sans-Serif and Monospace fonts.
Freetype2's auto-hinter (which does not infringe on any patents) should
be able to display Arial from the x11-fonts/webfonts port just fine.
