FreeSerif
FreeSerif is the Times-style serif in the GNU FreeFont family, a narrow book face with sharp serifs and coverage that extends to Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic, Devanagari, Hebrew, and Thai. Regular and bold with italics suit reports, academic papers, and multilingual documents, with FreeSans and FreeMono as siblings, though it will always look like a default.
