    Open Source Cyrillic Font

    As the thread title states.....Looking for an Open Source Cyrillic font.....preferably a sans type font. There's one named "Arial cyr" that I would like to find or one similar. (That's "cyr" not "CYR"" there is a difference)...thanks.

    to be out that long."

    Cool

    привет!

    The font I've got installed is "XFree86-cyrillic-fonts 4.1.0-50", and works perfectly in X, Gnome, and KDE (as well as this version of Mozilla, as I can view any web page - to see what you've got, and if it works, go to Google, select Language Tools on the left, and scroll down to the flags: The text below them should be in the native fonts).

    Once you have it installed, you should see the proper messages above and below

    до свидания!

    Thanks , but m/b I should have been more specific, as I'm looking for a .ttf or type1 font for printing.
