Can I install a font from my iMac to my Windows XP PC?

If so, is it as easy as going to a font folder in the iMac and copying to the Windows Font Folder in my Windows based PC?
I know you can do that from PC to PC, but I haven't tried it from the iMac (I'm new to iMac). And, speaking of that - where are my fonts stored on the iMac?

Thanks,

Steve

Users > user name > Library > Fonts – This used to be the best place to store your personal font collection in previous version of OSX. In OS X 10.7 the user library folder is hidden by default.
Library > Fonts – the system’s main font collection, meant for fonts that should be accessible to any user of the system.
Network > Library > Fonts – the font collection shared across the network.
System > Library > Fonts – the core set of system fonts.

If you are using a font management tool, fonts can be stored at other locations as well. The same is true if you are using the Adobe Creative Suite applications. InDesign, for example, has a separate ‘Fonts’ folder. From version 5 onwards the application will also automatically load fonts that are included in the ‘Document Fonts’ folder, provided this folder is in the same location as the InDesign document.
