+The Webcore Fonts package contains:
+
+* Microsoft's Core Fonts for the web * Microsoft Tahoma * Microsoft's
+new fonts for Windows Vista
+
+This SlackBuild puts two files in in /etc/fonts/conf.avail. The
+first, "35-webcore-fonts.conf", sets the "sans" "serif" and
+"monsopace" aliases to Arial, Times New Roman and Courier New. The
+second. "25-noautohint-corefonts.conf", disables the autohinter
+for core fonts only. You activate either file by symlinking it into
+/etc/fonts/conf.d.
+
+Before installing these, please remove
+"/etc/fonts/conf.d/60-liberation.conf". That file causes Slackware to
+display Liberation fonts in the place of Microsoft fonts. If you have
+Microsoft fonts, you don't need it.
