  Thanks!
  I saw http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/category/fonts/
  This post has no instructions for Ubuntu, but I understood the problem. Then:
  I looked for similar fonts for Ubuntu in OpenOffice writer, and inserted the name of the new font:
  span style=”font-family:verdana,DejaVu Sans;”
  In this way in Ubuntu the text is shown as DejaVu Sans, similar to verdana.
