Not exactly, I don't think (but I am not an expert). The Tahoma font is
offered freely by Microsoft, but when you download/install it, you have
to accept a license agreement. This, I believe, is why SuSE offers a
script to download the core MS fonts rather than the fonts themselves. I
think you would have to do something similar.
Hope this helps.
P.S. I have CC'd this to the list, but my ISP is blacklisted by the list
server. If you receive this,Cristiano, I would appreciate it if you
would forward it to the list-- or if you reply, please quote my reply so
that it is available to the list.
Thank you,
