Re: ttf fonts for SVG in debian
Hi,
SVG uses sytem font (because rendered via AWT), while FOP uses
explicitely specified fonts (in conf file) for PDF rendering.
To ensure that text in SVG uses a specific font, this font must be
declared both in system font system and in FOP conf file (with the same
name, of course).

You also might want to try the GNU FreeFont fonts (FreeSerif,
FreeSans, and FreMono) ttf fonts which have a large number of glyphs
compared to most ttf fonts. I have been very happy with them for SVG
equations. See:
http://www.gnu.org/software/freefont/

Hi
Vincent gave a fairly concise answer here, which may also help in
finding out which fonts Java has registered:
http://markmail.org/search/?q=Missing+Font+SVG+list%3Aorg.apache.xmlgraphics.fop-users#query:Missing%20Font%20SVG%20list%3Aorg.apache.xmlgraphics.fop-users+page:1+mid:obiwsaqa32ocd7qc+state:results
Also, you don't need the metrics file, they're deprecated, and
depending on which Linux flavour you've chosen, you can install Arial
(mscorefonts in Ubuntu) from the standard repositories.
Hope that helps
Mehdi
