[Detailed but UGLY installation instructions deleted---thanks Bruno!]

Question: What (or where) are the installation instructions for the  
current version of the fonts? The page you linked to (http://tug.org/ 
store/lucida/) doesn't seem to have installation instructions (unless  
I'm overlooking them). Are the new fonts "plug and play"? That in  
itself would be incentive for me to upgrade at some point.
