<DIV>No, the copyright treaties the United States has entered into specify
that something copyrighted in a foreign country is not subject to copyright
in the U.S. *unless* it would have been subject to copyright if it were made in
the U.S. Typefaces are not subject to copyright in the U.S., no matter where
they were made.</DIV>
