    font issues with ubuntu 11.04

    I was wondering if some fonts were deleted from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04.
    I found at least 2 programs to have font issues only in Ubuntu 11.04 (I have another computer running Ubuntu 10.10 and they are fine). These programs are VMD 1.9 and GRACE-5.1.22
    The fonts in the menus look weird, they are smaller and with low resolution.
    An update from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04 doesn't seem to have this issue, since a co-worker with the same hardware which used to run 10.10 upgraded to 11.04 and has no font issues.

    Thanks for any help in advance

    You can install more fonts by Synaptic or by Software-center, just search "fonts" and install the font-pack you prefer.

    I think your problem is that you don't know which font packages you need. For this issue you should install xfonts-100dpi and xfonts-75dpi.
