You can't use Windows- (or other TTF-/OTF-Formats) directly with pdfLaTeX. You'll have to migrate them to virtual Fonts, have to write the necessary .fd-Files, etc.etc. - which is at all not a trivial process. You should consider to use XeTeX or LuaTeX, instead of pdfLaTeX, where the usage of TTF-/OTF-Fonts (beside some other advanteges) is directly included via the fontspec-package. Regards - Thomas
