I am sorry for not replying sooner.

I've never used a free font for print publishing, so I'm not the one
to ask. I've heard that the Bitstream Vera family, the DejaVu
family, and the Gentium family are well made. Vera and DejaVu come
with many Linux distributions and Gentium can be downloaded from
<http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=Gentium_download>
.

You can download Bitstream Vera here:

Download DejaVu here:
