 Agreed.  Maho, you must display the EULA precisely before/after the
 installation and force the user to download manually (since EULA
 restricts downloading itself).  The EULA says the following:

  - The user must have one of the supported platforms.

  - The user can download/use this fontset for one of the supported
    printers only.

  - The user can download/use this fontset within Japan only.

 BTW, the XLFD FamilyName in files/fonts.dir.epson are incorrect.
 I think the correct ones are as follow (extracted from ttf name table):

 -epson-EPSON_FUTO_GYOSHO-*
 -epson-EPSON_GYOSHO-*
 -epson-EPSON_KAISHO-*
 -epson-EPSON_FUTO_KAKUGO-*
 -epson-EPSON_KYOKASHO-*
 -epson-EPSON_MARUGO-*
 -epson-EPSON_FUTO_MARUGO-*
 -epson-EPSON_FUTO_MINCHO-*

 How did you determine the current ones?
