This is exactly what prompted Pacific HiTech to license fonts from
Ryobi for TurboLinux. We're going to be including 5 commercial 
TT fonts with TurboLinux 2.0. 

Unfortunately these are only printing fonts, but we'd like to be able
to provide screen fonts too. Does anyone know a good/easy way to
make these TT fonts useable as screen fonts?
