"Historically, fonts have been a weak point in free software. There were
probably two reasons: first, programmers were mostly indifferent to
fonts, and, second, font designers were concerned about how their work
might be used. However, in the last five years, the problem has been
largely corrected, as a look at the Google Web Fonts page shows."
