title: Fonts for use in embedded GUI
body: <p>I am looking for fonts for use in an embedded GUI application with a small display and keypad.</p>
  
  <p>Are there any free fonts available that people have used?
  What about the licenses for free fonts? Are there any special requirements for an application like an embedded GUI? For example, include the License in the source code.</p>
  
  <p>Take the <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/freefont/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">GNU FreeFont</a> family fonts. The website talks about using these fonts in documents or altering them to fit your needs. If I have a way to import those fonts into my application (unaltered) and use them on my display, is that considered the same as using them to create a document with, let's say, AbiWord or OpenOffice?</p>
  
  <p>Also, what are the practical differences between free (open source, e.g. GNU FreeFont), license free (e.g. Fonts from link in Mark Rushakoff's comment below) and royalty free as far as fonts are concerned?</p>
