Hi all, Where can I find instructions telling me how to use Liberation Mono, Liberation Sans, and Liberation Serif in LaTeX and LyX? These are completely free software equivalents of Courier New, Ariel, and Times New Roman respectively, and I use them a lot to limit legal entanglements. Also, does anyone know a free and open equivalent of Century Schoolbook, and how to install it for LaTeX and LyX?
