Below is some additional notes from README.debian (included in ttf-unfonts-extra)
GPL and font embedding
These fonts are under the (pure) GNU General Public License, with no exception about embedding in a document. So you should take care about the license influence when your non-GPLed document embeds one of these fonts.
This licensing problem has already been reported to the upstream years ago but the upstream was not active on this discussion. Currently the upstream looks dead.
For your information about this issue:
- The font embedding exception which FSF suggests: http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/gpl-faq.html#FontException
- Fedora wiki page about font licensing: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Fonts/Legal
