Linux fonts

Hi Folks,

For my fellow Linux users...

I'm not that familiar with Linux fonts.

Is there any font in Linux which resembles the Windows font Bookman
Old style or Georgia?

Are there any Linux fonts which resemble Windows Calibri which is
small but very clear?

Thanks so much!

Charles.

Have a look at:

The equivalents aren't always exact, but have a look.
