Hi,

Anyone tried using the MinionPro or MyriadPro thats ships with Adobe Reader 
8?

If you happen to use Java you might have noticed that it comes with Lucida 
aswell

$ tree /opt/jdk1.6.0_06/jre/lib/fonts/
/opt/jdk1.6.0_06/jre/lib/fonts/
|-- LucidaBrightDemiBold.ttf
|-- LucidaBrightDemiItalic.ttf
|-- LucidaBrightItalic.ttf
|-- LucidaBrightRegular.ttf
|-- LucidaSansDemiBold.ttf
|-- LucidaSansRegular.ttf
|-- LucidaTypewriterBold.ttf
|-- LucidaTypewriterRegular.ttf
`-- fonts.dir

and

$ tree /opt/jdk1.6.0_06/jre/lib/oblique-fonts/
/opt/jdk1.6.0_06/jre/lib/oblique-fonts/
|-- LucidaSansDemiOblique.ttf

`-- fonts.dir

Can someone enlighten me with the legal issues surrounding the use of these 
fonts i.e., whether I can use them to typeset a thesis etc. If it's 
perfectly ok, I'd assume someone has written an article describing how I'd 
configure ConTeXt to use them. If you so happen to have the link, please 
post it.

And a question directed to the developers, why didn't you chose 'ConTeX', 
google doesn't like 'ConTeXt' it gets confused. I'm pretty sure users have 
noticed this.
