안녕하세요.

해외사이트에서  폰트를 다운받았으며,  폰트와 OFL 라이센스 텍스트 파일이 함께 받아졌습니다.

질문 1

폰트를 수정(형태변형, 일부분삭제) 등이 가능한가요?

질문 2

해당폰트를 활용. [OOO소싱 사이트에서 심볼과 로고디자인을 하여 수익을 창출 할 예정입니다. OFL라이센스 폰트로 이사이트에서 수상하여 수익을 발생하는 행위가 가능한가요?

(물론, 인터넷, 유튜브, 종이인쇄 등으로 노출이 될 수도 있습니다.) (폰트자체를 판매하지는 않습니다.)

질문 3

OFL 라이센스가 있는 폰트는 유효기간이 정해져 있나요?

예를 들어, OFL 라이센스로 되어 있지만,  제작자가 OFL라이센스를 취소하고, 유료로 변경할 수 있는것인가요.

아니면, 한번 OFL라이센스로 되어 있으면, 기간한정없이 계속 무제한으로 OFL 라이센스로 유지를 하는 것인가요?

질문 4

해외사이트에서 다운받은 폰트가 몇개 되는데요.

그 중 폰트 명이 'Prata-Regular' , P'rata'로 되어 있어서 OFL 라이센스인지 확인하려고 하는데 검색을 어디에서 하는지 찾지를 못하였습니다.  검색사이트 주소를 알수 있을까요?

이상이며, 많이 바쁘시더라도, 빠르고 명쾌한 답변부탁드립니다.

감사합니다.

아래는 폰트를 다운받을때 포함되어 있던 OFL텍스트 파일의 전문입니다.

문의주신 내용 답변드립니다.

답변1) 폰트에 대한 수정이 가능합니다.

답변2) 폰트자체를 유료로 판매하지 않으신다면 수익을 발생하는 행위가 가능합니다.

답변3) 만약 해당 폰트의 버전에 OFL이 적용 되었고 OFL 라이선스를 받으셨다면 평생 OFL 라이선스가 적용된다고 볼 수 있습니다.

답변4) 구글링 결과 구글 폰트에서 OFL 라이선스로 보입니다.
