Ah, the afm files don't have full license headers (the cmap ones do).
The license for using the afm files is included in the MustRead.html
file inside the same package. The file says:
This file and the 14 PostScript(R) AFM files it accompanies may be
used, copied, and distributed for any purpose and without charge,
with or without modification, provided that all copyright notices
are retained; that the AFM files are not distributed without this
file; that all modifications to this file or any of the AFM files
are prominently noted in the modified file(s); and that this
paragraph is not modified. Adobe Systems has no responsibility or
obligation to support the use of the AFM files.
