Hi, 
I have some questions here:
Is this true type font for browser only, or can it be used for another 
program, such as word processor (abiword, kword, staroffice, etc)?

Does a program needs to have the "ability" to support truetype fonts before 
it can use them, or will it "just work"?
Hope this questions make sense. I don't really know much about fonts and 
fonts type in linux, so any pointer or anything to enlighten me would be 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
