Fine, as long as you have the rights to distribute the fonts you include.
Many fonts are sold as commercial products. Before you give that font to
another person, be sure you know the source of the font. If you don't
have distribution rights to it, don't pirate it. (This is more of a problem
with postscript fonts nowadays than screen fonts.)
