This left me more confused - there are two cases :
- the typeface is used in media, or otherwise distributed
- the typeface is used locally in some app
Which license supports which case?
- neilpanchal 5y agoPrint licensing is very standard and used by the majority of the font fountries with exception of Lineto and a few others. For example, buy 1 seat (1 designer) and that designer can make unlimited print products as long as they have the seat to use it. It is based on installation on a computer that is used to develop the print materials. Some font fountries prevent the use of embedding fonts in the distributed media (such as PDFs). Where I made an explicit exception in the license is for developers using the typeface in IDEs, and using it in professional context. Also check input mono license which is where I got the inspiration from: https://input.djr.com/license/ https://input.djr.com/license/
- duped 5y agoThe input mono license is very clear to me, either the font is distributed/published or it isn't. "Publish" and "distribute" have very clear meanings that refer to the use of the licensed material. I think you need to go over the license copy with an attorney or native English speaker, since I am still left confused by your comments.
- cbreynoldson 5y agoWhat about the one-user, commercial shop? Seems like commercial is minimum 10 users, but personal/developer is more expensive per user. Does a one man shop need to pay $250 for commercial use, or $75?
