The Liberation Fonts suite for example is one such set of fonts, the creation of which was sponsored by Red Hat.
What is doubly frustrating about this is that there are entirely free and open fonts that could be mandated by PLOS ONE. Secondly, you need to work very hard to use these fonts in some applications, including R as we’ll see, simply because those applications were built to use different or open font definitions.

The choice of EPS is a pain, but can be worked round relatively easily and R can output to an EPS file via the postscript() device, as long as you follow a few basic guidelines, which I’ll cover below. The insistence that Arial be used as the font face in the figures.
