Hi :) I think once you have downloaded the font package all you need to do is double-click on the downloaded file and click "Ok". I think it's about that easy even on Windows. Tim at KrackedPress might have a better and more detailed method. This would mean sending people 2 small files instead of just one.
Given that Windows currently has a big problem with embedded fonts it might be seen as good practice to do that anyway. Apparently there are exploits out in the wild that can compromise a system through using a carefully crafted font that gets embedded in documents and then subverts the font reader. By sending the font separately the antivirus programs have more chance of catching the nefarious font packages. At the moment patches seem aimed at disabling programs ability to read embedded fonts but a better patch should appear soon. So, even tho that is not the cause of the problem this time giving fonts as a separate package might be appreciated by people that have read the scare stories.

For this specific use-case, might it be possible to install the font? I did a quick google search and it seems that the font is available for download (MScore20 at least). But it was only a quick look, I might be wrong. Seeing as the font is embedded in the pdf file, maybe it's possible to extract and then install it? Not sure how you would do that though.
