This was discussed once on here...maybe 2 months ago? You can look at it this way: You have a licence for Win95, under no circumstances does anyone ever install and use the FULL OS (it would be impossible to have every pice of hardware in existance that win95 comes with a driver for on 1 PC would it not?) In this case as long as you have a licence ot use win95...you should be able to use the fonts under linux...because you have a licence for use of the Win95 OS and you are validly using part of that OS. Is this M$s view on the subject? probably not...in fact I would not be surprized to see them argue that it is completly illegal...and a violation of their licence. However...the day that that argument stands up in court (even for Micro$oft) is the day that I will finnaly loose the last shred of respect I have for government and courts (which is hanging on some very thin threads as it is) -Steve -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
