UBUNTU FONT LICENCE Version 1.0 | |
------------------------------- | |
PREAMBLE | |
This licence allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and | |
redistributed freely. The fonts, including any derivative works, can be | |
bundled, embedded, and redistributed provided the terms of this licence | |
are met. The fonts and derivatives, however, cannot be released under | |
any other licence. The requirement for fonts to remain under this | |
licence does not require any document created using the fonts or their | |
derivatives to be published under this licence, as long as the primary | |
purpose of the document is not to be a vehicle for the distribution of | |
the fonts. | |
DEFINITIONS | |
"Font Software" refers to the set of files released by the Copyright | |
Holder(s) under this licence and clearly marked as such. This may | |
include source files, build scripts and documentation. | |
"Original Version" refers to the collection of Font Software components | |
as received under this licence. | |
"Modified Version" refers to any derivative made by adding to, deleting, | |
or substituting -- in part or in whole -- any of the components of the | |
Original Version, by changing formats or by porting the Font Software to | |
a new environment. | |
"Copyright Holder(s)" refers to all individuals and companies who have a | |
copyright ownership of the Font Software. | |
"Substantially Changed" refers to Modified Versions which can be easily | |
identified as dissimilar to the Font Software by users of the Font | |
Software comparing the Original Version with the Modified Version. | |
To "Propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without | |
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for | |
infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a | |
computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, | |
distribution (with or without modification and with or without charging | |
a redistribution fee), making available to the public, and in some | |
countries other activities as well. | |
PERMISSION & CONDITIONS | |
This licence does not grant any rights under trademark law and all such | |
rights are reserved. | |
Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a | |
copy of the Font Software, to propagate the Font Software, subject to | |
the below conditions: | |
1) Each copy of the Font Software must contain the above copyright | |
notice and this licence. These can be included either as stand-alone | |
text files, human-readable headers or in the appropriate machine- | |
readable metadata fields within text or binary files as long as those | |
fields can be easily viewed by the user. | |
2) The font name complies with the following: | |
(a) The Original Version must retain its name, unmodified. | |
(b) Modified Versions which are Substantially Changed must be renamed to | |
avoid use of the name of the Original Version or similar names entirely. | |
(c) Modified Versions which are not Substantially Changed must be | |
renamed to both (i) retain the name of the Original Version and (ii) add | |
additional naming elements to distinguish the Modified Version from the | |
Original Version. The name of such Modified Versions must be the name of | |
the Original Version, with "derivative X" where X represents the name of | |
the new work, appended to that name. | |
3) The name(s) of the Copyright Holder(s) and any contributor to the | |
Font Software shall not be used to promote, endorse or advertise any | |
Modified Version, except (i) as required by this licence, (ii) to | |
acknowledge the contribution(s) of the Copyright Holder(s) or (iii) with | |
their explicit written permission. | |
4) The Font Software, modified or unmodified, in part or in whole, must | |
be distributed entirely under this licence, and must not be distributed | |
under any other licence. The requirement for fonts to remain under this | |
licence does not affect any document created using the Font Software, | |
except any version of the Font Software extracted from a document | |
created using the Font Software may only be distributed under this | |
licence. | |
TERMINATION | |
This licence becomes null and void if any of the above conditions are | |
not met. | |
