I missed this discussion but I'm not surprised. I've read in more than one place in the typographical literature that Arial was a cheap knock-off of Helvetica that Microsoft cobbled together to avoid paying royalties (to Herman Zapf or Linotype?). (This story may be false but it *sounds* true!) Apparently there is no way that font designers can protect their work -- anyone with the right software can copy what may have taken months of effort, change the name, and sell it or give it away.
