"Final reminder that I’m not a lawyer and have no clue if anything I said is actually correct, so none of this is legal advice and I strongly recommend you go talk to a lawyer before attempting anything here. I’d also strongly emphasize the importance of supporting the incredible work behind your favorite typefaces by purchasing fonts directly, I definitely do not advocate ever for stealing anyone’s work." The project is fun and a cool idea, but don't take the headline at face value. Would something like this hold up in court? My guess is that it probably won't. If a lawyer can demonstrate that you've perfectly recreated a copyright font I'm guessing a fair number of judges or juries would find you in violation of copyright regardless of the method used to make the recreation. Either way you're opening yourself up to a potentially expensive legal headache if discovered.
