The Liberation Fonts is a font family which aims at metric compatibility with Arial, Times New Roman, and Courier New. This means that the letters and symbols width and height between the Liberation fonts and the corresponding Monotype fonts are identical, and the Monotype fonts can be substituted by the corresponding Liberation font without changing the document layout.
Liberation is the collective name of four TrueType font families: Liberation Sans, Liberation Sans Narrow, Liberation Serif, and Liberation Mono.
The fonts are default in LibreOffice.
