:-) Those fonts are also postscript fonts.

Use the installer from Walter Schmidt's page and install the font as
described. No renaming necessary, the script does it for you.

I don't know.

Only if you ask for them.

As long as you don't distibute them, I'd guess yes. But you shouldn't
ask me...
So, copy the attached file (warning: very experimental!!!) to your
directory and try to use it with:
\usetypescriptfile[type-lso]
\definetypeface [lso][rm][serif][lbso] [default][encoding=ec]
\definetypeface [lso][ss][sans] [lsso] [default][encoding=ec]
\definetypeface [lso][tt][mono] [lctso][default][encoding=ec]
\setupbodyfont[lso,12pt]
\starttext
\showbodyfont
\type{The quick brown fox jumps over the 1234567890 lazy dog!}
\switchtobodyfont [ss]
The quick brown fox jumps over the 1234567890 lazy dog!
\stoptext
