I'm pretty sure my copy of amrtypen.ttf came in a soup of 
fonts on a Corel8 CD. The "LICENSE.TXT" for the fonts 
indicated free personal use, but for commercial uses you 
should buy a license. Quite normal practice.

The font header is not very informative:

Suppose there is a bit more legalese in font headers these days?
