(If not, the license encourages you to bundle them with your own software.) The Lucida fonts that come with Mandrake aren't bad either. I might as well plug my ripoff of one of the above fonts here Toga Sans, http://www.binara.com/toga/ :) Rob

Oh..., damn. Ok, thanks Thomas. This particular font is named "times.ttf" and I believe it is pretty standard in windoze. Is there a version somewhere that I can use? What ttf fonts if any ships with 9.2 and where is it located, which package? -- Regards // Oden Eriksson, Deserve-IT.com

[Cooker] font license question
Hi. I'm packaging a new cool apache2 module that needs a ttf font that has this license: http://www.agfamonotype.com/html/default.asp?con=eula_land What is that? Is it ok for me to include this font in the binary package? The font is included in the tarball. -- Regards // Oden Eriksson, Deserve-IT.com
