Although I've found a way to [install fonts](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/226/installing-ttf-fonts-in-latex), I would like to distribute a `.tex` document along with any font it's using and be able to compile it without having to install these fonts. 

For instance, I would distribute the `.tex` file along with the `.afm`, `.dvi` or whatever format, in such a way that another author could edit the document and compile it with texlive or miktex (or any other under any platform) without having to install the fonts, just use the local redistributed ones.

Is this possible? How?

Thanks in advance.
