Rubicon
announces
licences
for CSS 3 add-on fonts
Rubicon Computer Labs announces licences to allow its fonts to be
used as add-on fonts for web browsers, over internet or intranet,
according to the @font-face rule of CSS Fonts Module Level 3. Terms are
as follows:
- Licencees
must
purchase
a
standard
licence
for the fonts, for each domain or intranet
they
want to host them on. The licence fee for most Rubicon font sets is $12.
- Licencees
must
register
their
domain
or
intranet with Rubicon. They will receive a CSS
3 font licence for that domain or intranet.
- Registered
licencees
may
host
the
fonts
on their registered domain or intranet for use as
downloadable add-on fonts with CSS 3.
- Registered
licencees
must
ensure
that
web
users who are not browsing their domain
cannot easily download or hot-link to the fonts.
Right
now, we are offering CSS 3 font licences for the following font sets:
