What gives? - -Bitstream is giving away these fonts, but wishes to ensure its -competitors can't just drop the fonts as is into a font sale system -and sell them as is. It seems fair that if Bitstream can't make money -from the Bitstream Vera fonts, their competitors should not be able to -do so either. You can sell the fonts as part of any software package, -however. - -2. I want to package these fonts separately for distribution and -sale as part of a larger software package or system. Can I do so? - -Yes. A RPM or Debian package is a "larger software package" to begin -with, and you aren't selling them independently by themselves. -See 1. above. - -3. Are derivative works allowed? -Yes! - -4. Can I change or add to the font(s)? -Yes, but you must change the name(s) of the font(s). - -5. Under what terms are derivative works allowed? - -You must change the name(s) of the fonts. This is to ensure the -quality of the fonts, both to protect Bitstream and Gnome. We want to -ensure that if an application has opened a font specifically of these -names, it gets what it expects (though of course, using fontconfig, -substitutions could still could have occurred during font -opening). You must include the Bitstream copyright. Additional -copyrights can be added, as per copyright law. Happy Font Hacking! - -6. If I have improvements for Bitstream Vera, is it possible they might get -adopted in future versions? - -Yes. The contract between the Gnome Foundation and Bitstream has -provisions for working with Bitstream to ensure quality additions to -the Bitstream Vera font family. Please contact us if you have such -additions. Note, that in general, we will want such additions for the -entire family, not just a single font, and that you'll have to keep -both Gnome and Jim Lyles, Vera's designer, happy! To make sense to add -glyphs to the font, they must be stylistically in keeping with Vera's -design. Vera cannot become a "ransom note" font. Jim Lyles will be -providing a document describing the design elements used in Vera, as a -guide and aid for people interested in contributing to Vera. - -7. I want to sell a software package that uses these fonts: Can I do so? - -Sure. Bundle the fonts with your software and sell your software -with the fonts. That is the intent of the copyright. - -8. If applications have built the names "Bitstream Vera" into them, -can I override this somehow to use fonts of my choosing? - -This depends on exact details of the software. Most open source -systems and software (e.g., Gnome, KDE, etc.) are now converting to -use fontconfig (see www.fontconfig.org) to handle font configuration, -selection and substitution; it has provisions for overriding font -names and subsituting alternatives. An example is provided by the -supplied local.conf file, which chooses the family Bitstream Vera for -"sans", "serif" and "monospace". Other software (e.g., the XFree86 -core server) has other mechanisms for font substitution. - -Show details Hide details - -Change log -r2011 by mark.nickel on Mar 3, 2011 Diff - -Majority of Multi-Line text editing is in -the commit.
