How to have a font similar to Arial/Tahoma/Verdana

What the fonts you mention seem to have in common is that they are sans serif fonts. It strikes me as crazy that a university would require body text in a sans serif font.

I was writting my script on one of the computers in my office. Unfortunately this PC is the only one for a few programmes so I had to move to another ...
