You may not use the words of the font names, but you would be allowed to use parts of words, as long as you do not use any word from the Reserved Font Names entirely. We do not recommend using parts of words because of potential confusion, but it is allowed. For example, if "Foobar" was a Reserved Font Name, you would be allowed to use "Foo" or "bar", although we would not recommend it. Such an unfortunate choice would confuse the users of your fonts as well as make it harder for other designers to contribute. 2.10 So what should I, as an author, identify as Reserved Font Names? Original authors are encouraged to name their fonts using clear, distinct names, and only declare the unique parts of the name as Reserved Font Names. For example, the author of a font called "Foobar Sans" would declare "Foobar" as a Reserved Font Name, but not "Sans", as that is a common typographical term, and may be a useful word to use in a derivative font name. Reserved Font Names should also be single words. A font called "Flowing River" should have Reserved Font Names "Flowing" and "River", not "Flowing River". 2.11 Do I, as an author, have to identify any Reserved Font Names? No, but we strongly encourage you to do so. This is to avoid confusion between your work and Modified versions. You may, however, give certain trusted parties the right to use any of your Reserved Font Names through separate written agreements. For example, even if "Foobar" is a RFN, you could write up an agreement to give company "XYZ" the right to distribute a modified version with a name that includes "Foobar". This allows for freedom without confusion. 2.12 Are any names (such as the main font name) reserved by default? No. That is a change to the license as of version 1.1. If you want any names to be Reserved Font Names, they must be specified after the copyright statement(s). 2.13 What is this FONTLOG thing exactly? It has three purposes: 1) to provide basic information on the font to users and other developers, 2) to document changes that have been made to the font or accompanying files, either by the original authors or others, and 3) to provide a place to acknowledge the authors and other contributors. Please use it! See below for details on how changes should be noted. 2.14 Am I required to update the FONTLOG? No, but users, designers and other developers might get very frustrated at you if you don't! People need to know how derivative fonts differ from the original, and how to take advantage of the changes, or build on them. 3 ABOUT THE FONTLOG The FONTLOG can take a variety of formats, but should include these four sections: 3.1 FONTLOG for This file provides detailed information on the Font Software. This information should be distributed along with the fonts and any derivative works. 3.2 Basic Font Information (Here is where you would describe the purpose and brief specifications for the font project, and where users can find more detailed documentation. It can also include references to how changes can be contributed back to the Original Version. You may also wish to include a short guide to the design, or a reference to such a document.) 3.3 ChangeLog (This should list both major and minor changes, most recent first. Here are some examples:) 7 February 2007 (Pat Johnson) Version 1.3 - Added Greek and Cyrillic glyphs - Released as "" 7 March 2006 (Fred Foobar) Version 1.2 - Tweaked contextual behaviours - Released as "" 1 Feb 2005 (Jane Doe) Version 1.1 - Improved build script performance and verbosity - Extended the smart code documentation - Corrected minor typos in the documentation - Fixed position of combining inverted breve below (U+032F) - Added OpenType/Graphite smart code for Armenian - Added Armenian glyphs (U+0531 -> U+0587) - Released as "" 1 Jan 2005 (Joe Smith) Version 1.0 - Initial release of font "" 3.4 Acknowledgements (Here is where contributors can be acknowledged. If you make modifications be sure to add your name (N), email (E), web-address (W) and description (D). This list is sorted by last name in alphabetical order.)

It would benefit many people if you contributed back to what you've received. Providing your contributions and improvements to the fonts and other components (data files, source code, build scripts, documentation, etc.) could be a tremendous help and would encourage others to contribute as well and 'give back', which means you will have an opportunity to benefit from other people's contributions as well. Sometimes maintaining your own separate version takes more effort than merging back with the original. Be aware that any contributions, however, must be either your own original creation or work that you own, and you may be asked to affirm that clearly when you contribute. 4.2 I've made some very nice improvements to the font, will you consider adopting them and putting them into future Original Versions? Most authors would be very happy to receive such contributions. Keep in mind that it is unlikely that they would want to incorporate major changes that would require additional work on their end. Any contributions would likely need to be made for all the fonts in a family and match the overall design and style. Authors are encouraged to include a guide to the design with the fonts. It would also help to have contributions submitted as patches or clearly marked changes (the use of smart source revision control systems like subversion, svk, mercurial, git or bzr is a good idea). Examples of useful contributions are bug fixes, additional glyphs, stylistic alternates (and the smart font code to access them) or improved hinting. 4.3 How can I financially support the development of OFL fonts? It is likely that most authors of OFL fonts would accept financial contributions - contact them for instructions on how to do this. Such contributions would support future development. You can also pay for others to enhance the fonts and contribute the results back to the original authors for inclusion in the Original Version. (In case of the font, that comes with this copy of the FAQ-file, you will find a paypal(tm) donation link on the fonts-page of www.peter-wiegel.de) 5 ABOUT THE LICENSE 5.1 I see that this is version 1.1 of the license. Will there be later changes? Version 1.1 is the first minor revision of the OFL. We are confident that version 1.1 will meet most needs, but are open to future improvements. Any revisions would be for future font releases, and previously existing licenses would remain in effect. No retroactive changes are possible, although the Copyright Holder(s) can re-release the font under a revised OFL. All versions will be available on our web site: http://scripts.sil.org/OFL. 5.2 Can I use the SIL Open Font License for my own fonts? Yes! We heartily encourage anyone to use the OFL to distribute their own original fonts. It is a carefully constructed license that allows great freedom along with enough artistic integrity protection for the work of the authors as well as clear rules for other contributors and those who redistribute the fonts. Some additional information about using the OFL is included at the end of this FAQ. 5.3 Does this license restrict the rights of the Copyright Holder(s)? No. The Copyright Holder(s) still retain(s) all the rights to their creation; they are only releasing a portion of it for use in a specific way. For example, the Copyright Holder(s) may choose to release a 'basic' version of their font under the OFL, but sell a restricted 'enhanced' version. Only the Copyright Holder(s) can do this. 5.4 Is the OFL a contract or a license? The OFL is a license and not a contract and so does not require you to sign it to have legal validity. By using, modifying and redistributing components under the OFL you indicate that you accept the license. 5.5 How about translating the license and the FAQ into other languages? SIL certainly recognises the need for people who are not familiar with English to be able to understand the OFL and this FAQ better in their own language. Making the license very clear and readable is a key goal of the OFL. If you are an experienced translator, you are very welcome to help by translating the OFL and its FAQ so that designers and users in your language community can understand the license better. But only the original English version of the license has legal value and has been approved by the community. Translations do not count as legal substitutes and should only serve as a way to explain the original license. SIL - as the author and steward of the license for the community at large - does not approve any translation of the OFL as legally valid because even small translation ambiguities could be abused and create problems. We give permission to publish unofficial translations into other languages provided that they comply with the following guidelines: - put the following disclaimer in both English and the target language stating clearly that the translation is unofficial: "This is an unofficial translation of the SIL Open Font License into $language. It was not published by SIL International, and does not legally state the distribution terms for fonts that use the OFL. A release under the OFL is only valid when using the original English text. However, we recognize that this unofficial translation will help users and designers not familiar with English to understand the SIL OFL better and make it easier to use and release font families under this collaborative font design model. We encourage designers who consider releasing their creation under the OFL to read the FAQ in their own language if it is available. Please go to http://scripts.sil.org/OFL for the official version of the license and the accompanying FAQ." - keep your unofficial translation current and update it at our request if needed, for example if there is any ambiguity which could lead to confusion. If you start such a unofficial translation effort of the OFL and its accompanying FAQ please let us know, thank you. 6 ABOUT SIL INTERNATIONAL 6.1 Who is SIL International and what does it do? SIL International is a worldwide faith-based education and development organization (NGO) that studies, documents, and assists in developing the world's lesser-known languages through literacy, linguistics, translation, and other academic disciplines. SIL makes its services available to all without regard to religious belief, political ideology, gender, race, or ethnic background. SIL's members and volunteers share a Christian commitment. 6.2 What does this have to do with font licensing? The ability to read, write, type and publish in one's own language is one of the most critical needs for millions of people around the world. This requires fonts that are widely available and support lesser-known languages. SIL develops - and encourages others to develop - a complete stack of writing systems implementation components available under open licenses. This open stack includes input methods, smart fonts, smart rendering libraries and smart applications. There has been a need for a common open license that is specifically applicable to fonts and related software (a crucial component of this stack) so SIL developed the SIL Open Font License with the help of the FLOSS community. 6.3 How can I contact SIL? Our main web site is: http://www.sil.org/ Our site about complex scripts is: http://scripts.sil.org/ Information about this license (including contact email information) is at: http://scripts.sil.org/OFL 7 ABOUT USING THE OFL FOR YOUR ORIGINAL FONTS If you want to release your fonts under the OFL, you only need to do the following: 7.1 Put your copyright and reserved font names information in the beginning of the main OFL file (simply use the dedicated placeholders). 7.2 Put your copyright and the OFL references in your various font files (such as in the copyright, license and description fields) and in your other components (build scripts, glyph databases, documentation, rendering samples, etc). Accurate metadata in your font files is beneficial to you as an increasing number of applications are exposing this information to the user. For example, clickable links can bring users back to your website and let them know about other work you have done or services you provide. Depending on the format of your fonts and sources, you can use template human-readable headers or machine-readable metadata. 7.3 Write an initial FONTLOG for your font and include it in the release package. 7.4 Include the OFL license file in your release package. 7.5 We also highly recommend you include the relevant practical documentation on the license by putting the OFL-FAQ in your package. 7.6 If you wish, you can use the OFL Graphics on your web page. That's all. If you have any more questions please get in touch with us.
