This also installs Microsoft's ClearType fonts, see http://www.microsoft.com/typography/ClearTypeFonts.mspx for more info. With this package the actual font cab files are downloaded from a Sourceforge project mirror and unpacked at install time. Therefore this package technically does not "redistribute" the fonts.
