You can install the minimals (for windows) on a pendrive with
Wine. This way I had no problem accessing my university’s Adobe
fonts at public computers in the library. All I had was a
restricted user account and cmd.exe. I used to work flawlessly
(until they disabled the terminal when they did a global upgrade
to win7).
Regards
Philipp
