[comp.fonts] Recognize these fonts?

I found three TrueType fonts on a public-access Macintosh today, and I am tryin
to determine whether or not they are publicly distributable.  The fonts in ques
are:

     Carolus Roman - a caps & small-caps Roman font; quite elegant
     Dragonwick - fancy decorative font
     Freestyle Script - nice "handwriting" font

Are these TrueType fonts freely distributable?  I've been told that Adobe has
released some sort of "Freestyle Script" font; does anyone know the origin of
these TrueType versions?  Are they independant of any commercial fonts (i.e.
TrueType conversions of public-domain or shareware PostScript Type 1 or 3
fonts, or the like)?

Many thanks in advance, and please reply by email.  If these fonts turn out to
be publicly distributable, they will appear in the TrueType font archive that
is part of the anonymous ftp archive at mac.archive.umich.edu.
