Converting Type 1 fonts for use with Windows

Some Linux distributions like Red Hat and Suse have some fabulous Type 1 fonts for use that Windows users can really drool over. I especially like the URW and Chancery fonts.

If you want to use these fonts in Windows, hop over to the FontForge site and download FontForge. Open the font you wish to convert, select Generate, and choose to convert to either an OpenType or TrueType font. Drop the font in your fonts directory and you're home free. :)
