Debi Sementelli Type Foundry Desktop Font License

Debi Sementelli Type Foundry - Desktop License 1.1 - August 11, 2016

This license has restrictions we think you should be aware of

  • This license has some restrictions on logo design

    Section 7 states that “modification of a reasonable and limited number of letterform outlines is permitted” when designing a logo. Most desktop licenses don’t limit the number of outlines you can modify in this way, instead allowing unlimited modification of outlines in design programs.

  • This license does not allow the embedding of the font in commercial PDFs

    This license only allows embedding in of the font in PDFs for personal and internal business use. Most desktop licenses allow the embedding of fonts in PDFs for commerical use, as long as the document is not editable in any way.

  • This license does not allow the font to be used in broadcast television or film

    This license prohibits the use of the font in titling, credits for any on-screen broadcast via television, or motion picture titling. Many desktop licenses allow use in television and film, without requiring an additional license.

  • This license limits the number of “unique designs” you can create using the font.

    This license caps the number of unique designs you can create and sell using the font at 250. If you intend to design more than 250 unique commercial products using the font, you would be required to purchase an extension to the license. Most desktop licenses don’t have any limits on the number of unique designs you can create using the font, but instead allow you to create unlimited designs and products.

If none of these restrictions apply to you or your company, you can consider this license "worry-free" for your uses. The rest of the license contains no suprises or special terms we think you should be aware of.

If you intend to use the font in a way that is restricted by the above restrictions, please contact us at support@fontspring.com, and we'll be able to assist you with a license that perfectly fits your needs.
