You *did* get a license to distribute that font before posting that stuff to snowy. Did you?
Merely embedding a font in a document is not distributing it -- legally speaking. The specific permission bits on the font are baked into the font, and I bet you dollars to doughnuts it, in this case, allows non-editable-embedding and maybe editable-embedding but not installable-embedding -- which is what you're thinking of. The actual Georgia fonts in BB's document are non-editable ie: they are embedded in a document that is not intended to be further edited (using that font) -- and in fact they have been subset, making them fairly useless even for someone who went to the trouble of teasing them out of the binary goo that is in a PDF document. The copyright police will not be breaking down BB's door on that account. ============================================================ Gardner Buchanan <gbuchana@rogers.com> Ottawa, ON FreeBSD: Where you want to go.
