Here is the page for ms core fonts for Ubuntu 12.04:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+package/ttf-mscorefonts-installer
Synaptic needed to be manually installed starting about 11.04.

Hi :)
There is always at least 1 distro that renames things a bit. In this case i
think it's Ubuntu so it might be worth searching your package manager to get
the right fonts
Regards from
Tom :)
Well, the OP said he had Ubuntu, but not which version. I assumed
12.04 since he also asked how to install Synaptic. I think (but I'm
not 100% sure) that 12.04 is the first Ubuntu that doesn't come with
Synaptic pre-installed.
Some older versions of Ubuntu have a different name of that package,
and I think a few fonts were missing as well.
Kind regards

Hi
I was wondering what would be considered the core fonts on Microsoft.
After ages fruitless searching I was wondering if anybody could help me
on what they would consider to be core fonts.
I backed up my fonts folder from windows 7 before the change to ubuntu
so I had all of them problem is I can not be bothered installing every
single one of them!
The quickest way, if you want to install those mss TTF core fonts from
the repositories, is from a terminal. Just copy this line into a
terminal and hit Enter. Note that the keyboard shortcut for Paste is
Ctrl+Shift+v, if you didn't edit those yourself:
sudo apt-get install ms-corefonts-installer
The package contains:
Andale
Arial Black
Arial
Comic Sans
Courier New
Georgia
Impact
Times New Roman
Trebuchet
Verdana
Webdings
If you only want to use Arial, Times New Roman and Courier New, it's
recommended that you use the free fonts from the package
fonts-liberation instead (probably already installed on your system.
Those are called something like Liberation Sans (looks like Arial) and
so on.
Kind regards
