Basically xft (x Free Fonts) is Free-Source's answer to the truetype 
fonts (ttf).  Adobe (and probably to some extent, Microsoft) owns the 
rendering engine, which is proprietary, and libraries for ttf.  OTOH, 
while you cannot copyright a truetype font (or any other font), you can 
trademark its name.  Without a license, which is unlikely to be granted 
by Microsoft, a Linux distro cannot legally distribute many of the 
popular truetype fonts such as Times New Roman, Arial, or many Microsoft 
fonts (mainly because of trademark infringement).  This has caused a lot 
of problems with Mozilla, making it at least superficiously inferior to 
IE.  Now things can begin to change.
