Multiplatform font compatible with Arial

Hello!

I have been using the "Arial" font in my software because it works at least in Windows and Linux (Ubuntu).

But, a user of my tool "Proofing Tool GUI" complained that it is not possible to see the difference between "L" and "I" in lowercase I believe.

Is there another multiplatform font 100% compatible with Arial in the size (that won't produce higher or lower text with the same font size) and that differentiates between "L" and "I"?

Thank you!
