Fonts for ibrowse

How do i get nice readable and smooth fonts for ibrowse? I have tried to convert truetype fonts but with no luck  :-(

Look at these awful fonts:

Hmmm....here are a couple of "guides" which helped me a bit..

http://ragriffi.home.sprynet.com/ttflib.htm

or

http://www.kittycat.co.uk/computing/webfonts/

Both of them require the ttf package, but IMO it's worth the effort for
nice fonts (Arial, Tahoma and Verdana are a few good fonts to try  for browsers).

Nice IB buttons, BTW!

there have been set of TTF fonts to download and also snapshot of IBrowse font settings and explanation how to configure to IBrowse pages have the same [or mostly the same] look with fonts as on PCs or MACs on GFXBase site.

The link was somewere top right, you can check the page, maybe link is still there.

I replaced all horrifying Topaz fonts with excellent looking Verdana [it is for a start] and everything looks normal, not ugly anymore.

I hope OS4 will have standard set of fonts for IBrowse...
