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)?
