PREAMBLE |
6 |
This licence allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and |
7 |
redistributed freely. The fonts, including any derivative works, can be |
8 |
bundled, embedded, and redistributed provided the terms of this licence |
9 |
are met. The fonts and derivatives, however, cannot be released under |
10 |
any other licence. The requirement for fonts to remain under this |
11 |
licence does not require any document created using the fonts or their |
12 |
derivatives to be published under this licence, as long as the primary |
13 |
purpose of the document is not to be a vehicle for the distribution of |
14 |
the fonts. |

|
16 |
DEFINITIONS |
17 |
"Font Software" refers to the set of files released by the Copyright |
18 |
Holder(s) under this licence and clearly marked as such. This may |
19 |
include source files, build scripts and documentation. |
20 |
|
21 |
"Original Version" refers to the collection of Font Software components |
22 |
as received under this licence. |
23 |
|
24 |
"Modified Version" refers to any derivative made by adding to, deleting, |
25 |
or substituting -- in part or in whole -- any of the components of the |
26 |
Original Version, by changing formats or by porting the Font Software to |
27 |
a new environment. |
28 |
|
29 |
"Copyright Holder(s)" refers to all individuals and companies who have a |
30 |
copyright ownership of the Font Software. |
31 |
|
32 |
"Substantially Changed" refers to Modified Versions which can be easily |
33 |
identified as dissimilar to the Font Software by users of the Font |
34 |
Software comparing the Original Version with the Modified Version. |
35 |
|
36 |
To "Propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without |
37 |
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for |
38 |
infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a |
39 |
computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, |
40 |
distribution (with or without modification and with or without charging |
41 |
a redistribution fee), making available to the public, and in some |
42 |
countries other activities as well. |
43 |
|
44 |
PERMISSION & CONDITIONS |
45 |
This licence does not grant any rights under trademark law and all such |

|
52 |
1) Each copy of the Font Software must contain the above copyright |
53 |
notice and this licence. These can be included either as stand-alone |

readable metadata fields within text or binary files as long as those |
56 |
fields can be easily viewed by the user. |

58 |
2) The font name complies with the following: |
59 |
(a) The Original Version must retain its name, unmodified. |

avoid use of the name of the Original Version or similar names entirely. |
62 |
(c) Modified Versions which are not Substantially Changed must be |
63 |
renamed to both (i) retain the name of the Original Version and (ii) add |

Original Version. The name of such Modified Versions must be the name of |
66 |
the Original Version, with "derivative X" where X represents the name of |
67 |
the new work, appended to that name. |
