I cannot see any special license there, which would make their general license for the files on their ftp server apply (see ftp://ftp.adobe.com/license.txt ). However that one is basically a non-liability clause plus some standard requirements and mentions only software, not data files, so i'm not sure what license implications that has, IANAL. As for printing without them: you cannot use printer builtin fonts then; these are the metrics for the standard PostScript fonts, on cannot really produce PostScript text without them. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
