Copyright FAQ
=============
1. I don't understand the resale restriction... 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
