 108  Copyright FAQ
 109  =============
 110  
 111     1. I don't understand the resale restriction... What gives?
 112  
 113        Bitstream is giving away these fonts, but wishes to ensure its
 114        competitors can't just drop the fonts as is into a font sale system
 115        and sell them as is. It seems fair that if Bitstream can't make money
 116        from the Bitstream Vera fonts, their competitors should not be able to
 117        do so either. You can sell the fonts as part of any software package,
 118        however.
 119  
 120     2. I want to package these fonts separately for distribution and
 121        sale as part of a larger software package or system.  Can I do so?
 122  
 123        Yes. A RPM or Debian package is a "larger software package" to begin
 124        with, and you aren't selling them independently by themselves.
 125        See 1. above.
 126  
 127     3. Are derivative works allowed?
 128        Yes!
 129  
 130     4. Can I change or add to the font(s)?
 131        Yes, but you must change the name(s) of the font(s).
 132  
 133     5. Under what terms are derivative works allowed?
 134  
 135        You must change the name(s) of the fonts. This is to ensure the
 136        quality of the fonts, both to protect Bitstream and Gnome. We want to
 137        ensure that if an application has opened a font specifically of these
 138        names, it gets what it expects (though of course, using fontconfig,
 139        substitutions could still could have occurred during font
 140        opening). You must include the Bitstream copyright. Additional
 141        copyrights can be added, as per copyright law. Happy Font Hacking!
 142  
 143     6. If I have improvements for Bitstream Vera, is it possible they might get
 144         adopted in future versions?
 145  
 146        Yes. The contract between the Gnome Foundation and Bitstream has
 147        provisions for working with Bitstream to ensure quality additions to
 148        the Bitstream Vera font family. Please contact us if you have such
 149        additions. Note, that in general, we will want such additions for the
 150        entire family, not just a single font, and that you'll have to keep
 151        both Gnome and Jim Lyles, Vera's designer, happy! To make sense to add
 152        glyphs to the font, they must be stylistically in keeping with Vera's
 153        design. Vera cannot become a "ransom note" font. Jim Lyles will be
 154        providing a document describing the design elements used in Vera, as a
 155        guide and aid for people interested in contributing to Vera.
 156  
 157     7. I want to sell a software package that uses these fonts: Can I do so?
 158  
 159        Sure. Bundle the fonts with your software and sell your software
 160        with the fonts. That is the intent of the copyright.
 161  
 162     8. If applications have built the names "Bitstream Vera" into them,
 163        can I override this somehow to use fonts of my choosing?
 164  
 165        This depends on exact details of the software. Most open source
 166        systems and software (e.g., Gnome, KDE, etc.) are now converting to
 167        use fontconfig (see www.fontconfig.org) to handle font configuration,
 168        selection and substitution; it has provisions for overriding font
 169        names and subsituting alternatives. An example is provided by the
 170        supplied local.conf file, which chooses the family Bitstream Vera for
 171        "sans", "serif" and "monospace".  Other software (e.g., the XFree86
 172        core server) has other mechanisms for font substitution.
