\font=Arial means that tex should load Arial.tfm.
1. copy ua1.map my-ua1.map
2. rename the tfm files as you need (better make copies of them)
3. edit my-ua1.map accordingly. The first column contains the
basename of the tfm file. Make sure that the .pfb files
mentioned in the map file have the same names as the fonts.
3. updmap --disable ua1.map
updmap --enable Map=ua1.map

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
