Hello, there are a lot of very good fonts in this pack for sure, I will definitely use them in personal projects when I could :)

I would like to clarify some things regarding the license and latin accents, if I am wrong or have missed something, I apologize

Does the license allow to modify the font in some way to add (at least try) latin accents for fonts that don't have them

If it is possible and I understand it correctly, the ttf/odf file must not be modified:

- If the ttf/odf font is used in a program or a video game for example (in a hidden form), can providing accents via a background layer in the application while keeping the original font unchanged work?

- If the ttf/odf font is not used directly but in another form (font converted to bitmap, svg, etc), can the changes be included directly in the file?

- Also if one day I want to credit you (in the distant future, I manage to finish a project who knows), if I have made changes how should I proceed?

Thank you!

Sorry for my bad English

Thank you for buying the font pack!

You can add latin accents to any of the fonts that don't have them yes - to be honest you can edit the .ttf or .otf file yourself if you want as long as you don't redistribute it afterwards.

You can definitely edit any version converted to bitmap too, since you might want to make logos with different styles and stuff, so editing the outline of the font in sprites and graphics is totally fine.

You don't need to credit us, but if you want to you can just write "Font by Chequered Ink" or something!

Finally, your English is fantastic no need to apologise!

All the best,

Daniel

Thank you for your response, I am trying to improve with softwares help, it takes time :)

So to be sure that I have understood correctly :

- The modified ttf/odf file cannot be redistributed, so it cannot be used in a game if the game engine store it as is (the file will be there even if hidden/compressed in a package and could be potentialy extracted) or I am wrong and this is not considered as a redistribution of the file in this case

- Using a bitmap version (or SDF maybe?) of the modified font in a game is okay however

- In regard to redistribution I think the situation is the same on a website, the modified font can't be embedded (WOFF/WOFF2 format, easyly downloadable)

Am I right in each of these cases?

The intention of the part about not redistributing is to say you shouldn't redistribute the font file to other people as just a font.

You can bundle the font in your game, or use it on your website, it doesn't matter to us if it's "technically" downloadable by a user who looks through your code as long as it's not there in plain sight to download as a font they can use.

So you can use it in games and as a webfont if you want.
