I use latest Debian unstable, GNU/Linux system.

I would like to use only truetype fonts for webpages in my Mozilla 
browser, because the PCF fonts look ugly. 

These are the only packages that have anything to do with fonts, that 
I have installed:

defoma              
fontconfig          
gsfonts             
gsfonts-x11         
libfontconfig1      
libfreetype6        
libt1-5             
libxft1             
libxft2             
ttf-arphic-gkai00mp 
ttf-bitstream-vera  
ttf-freefont        
ttf-kochi-mincho    
xfonts-base         

I deliberately did not install xfonts-100dpi or xfonts-75dpi becasue I 
do not want to use these fonts at all.

When I view a page which uses UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1 or US-ASCII 
encoding, truetype fonts are used, and it looks beautiful.

However if a page uses ISO-8859-2 or some other encoding, then fonts 
are ugly, I suspect that fonts from the gsfonts package are used.

I would remove the gsfonts package, but xpdf depends on it. Is there 
some other PDF reader that can use only truetype fonts to view PDFs, 
so I can remove gsfonts?

The package gsfonts-x11 is "Make Ghostscript fonts available to X11"
so I suspect that removing that might fix the problem, but j2re1.4 
depends on it!

Anyway, what is the proper way to resolve this problem?
