Digging through that site I find the following related to use of this font
in
web sites:
First the licence is a Creative Commons ´BY¡ license which only demands
attribution.

Thank you for finding that information that attribution is all that's
needed to answer the second of the two original questions.

1. Technical (how do I embed the TT font in PowerPoint?)
2. Legal (what am I supposed to do for copyright stuff?)

The manner of attribution for a web site is to include the following:
´http://www.onlinewebfonts.com font by Michael D. Adams is licensed by
CC BY 3.0"

I agree that a simple attribution page is in the spirit of the Creative
Commons license agreement, since distribution isn't by web, but by
PowerPoint embedding.

The license says:
"This font may be freely distributed and used provided copyright
notifications remain intact."

That sounds pretty specific. However, this download site states; ´License:
unknown¡ and is less specific than the onlinewebfonts.com license.
http://www.fontpalace.com/font-details/Roadgeek+2005+Series+B/

So that site fails to meet the minimum CC BY 3.0 license requirement.

I think this particular free font is so widely distributed on web sites
that the adherence to license agreements by those web sites is variable.


The copyright says:
"Copyright (c) Michael D. Adams, 2005. All rights reserved."

That seems to be the simplest statement of attribution, and the only
requirement of the Collective Commons ´BY¡ 3.0 license.

Thank you for finding and understanding the "collective commons" agreement,
which is new to me so I appreciate your advice.

I had a brain fart, it is Creative Commons, not Collective Commons There is
more for you he

So how do you maintain a copyright notice intact in PowerPoint 2007?

To cover all bases to be within the spirit of the CC license, I would add a
CYA page to your Power Point presentation which states the following, or
words to that effect:
Roadgeek 2005 Series B Copyright © Michael D. Adams, 2005. All Rights
Reserved. License CC by.¡

Thank you.

That seems like a good answer to the second question of the two asked!
1. Technical (how do I embed the TT font in PowerPoint?)

I last used Power Point (Mac & Win) over 10 years ago.

2. Legal (what am I supposed to do for copyright stuff?

In the case of this specific font, provide the attribution. In the case of
any other copyrighted material, meet the requirements of the specific license
demands.


Are there Mac experts on this ng who know the answer to the first question?

As I said I haven’t used Power Point on a Mac for over 10 years, and since
I retired I have had little reason to use Keynote. So in respect of your
question, I will be of little help.
