The question was " How can i legally distribute them in my php
apllication? "...

I have an PHP application thats generates PDF's and needs to embed
fonts into that PDF. To be able toembed them, you have to actually
have them.
The app will not run on windows, so i need to find out how to
distribute the fonts with my app...

Jeff: only Windows has Arial & Times by default...
