[virtio-comment] Re: [PATCH V3 1/2] Changed fonts to fonts available with tex-live.

["Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>]

Chet, please see below.

Documents from
http://docs.oasis-open.org/templates/OASISSpecificationTemplateGuidelinesV4.0.html
all use microsoft fonts such as Arial.

E.g. this can be seen in the PDFs on that site.

How important is the use of the specific fonts for consistency?

Thanks!

Yep, you need to get these fonts separately.
But I don't think we can change the fonts, these are
recommended OASIS fonts, see
