Unfortunately this fonts have some gaps.  Especially the german quotes are 
not there.  But there are other versions of Lucida family freely available.

StarOffice 5.2 (5.1?) comes with a great load of them.  And in the "West" 
variants also the german quotes are present.  Maybe it is possible to make 
a patchwork font with the help of virtual fonts.
