Licensing for commercial use

timveer

Hello all,

As a software developer I use fonts primarily as "graphical embellishments" to my interface. The fonts are not embedded as "fonts", they are integrated into the visual aspect of my designs.

I have fonts that are commercial use fonts, providing the standard "...for Personal or Internal Use..." statement, however it leaves out the real "clarity". As I am using these fonts "in house" on my own computer when developing my software I assume my usage is covered under the standard "Commercial" EULA, but if anyone can shed some light and help to clarify the murky waters I'd appreciate it.

In your scenario, your font USAGE remains personal and/or internal; the font itself merely renders artifacts within your designs. You're cool...

Thanks oldnick.

Oh, so this is what you do the rest of the year...
