It's more like a requirement font on your system for it to be viewed on a
sign.

Yes, however if the fonts are on the world server then they can be
downloaded and used just like normal objects, a nice idea... as long as you
would have an option to verify your want each font so nothing can go
overwriting.

Maybe there is a way to download the fonts into the AW folder and use
them without having to install them. I'm not sure if that's possible but
in theory it should be.

Unless the browser parses the TTF file and renders the font itself, you have to have it installed to make Windows recognize it.

This is the only viable solution; if the browser just installed fonts in Windows, you'll eventually run into this problem: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;131943
