    If you're using TTF fonts under Linux (eg, I use the Bitstream Vera
    fonts) they should install on a Windows machine like any other TTF font.

    Alternatively, you could use the Windows fonts on Linux when creating a
    document that Windows users need to be able to view. In YaST's Online
    Update (YOU), install the fetchmsttfonts patch to get the MS core font
    set (Arial, Times New Roman, Courier New, Verdana, etc)
