Hello, could you be more specific as to what the requirements are? It 
seems silly for the guidelines to request TrueType fonts with no 
rationale to back this up. Is it any TrueType font, or a particular 
one?

For using TrueType fonts only, the simplest solution is possibly to 
typeset with XeLaTeX and Will Robertson's fontspec package:

<http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=xetex>
<http://www.mecheng.adelaide.edu.au/~will/tex/>

but if your proposal includes maths there will still be Computer Modern 
characters (in OpenType form) in the output.

Hope this helps,

Bruno Voisin
