I cannot say how often I will use a particular font, thus I look at the price and if it is reasonable for me, I buy it (and I have not used so far a lot of commercial fonts I bouhgt 6 years ago). I do not want to audit my documents to see whether the commercial ones contain only the licensed sources. I have therefore only two types of fonts:
1. Free fonts that can be used without restriction 2. Commercial fonts that I bought I often use commercial fonts even in noncommercial documents (but in such a case I am not allowed to give the TeX sources). > Gareth. > > > > -------------------------------------------------- > Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: > http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex -- Zdeněk Wagner http://hroch486.icpf.cas.cz/wagner/ http://icebearsoft.euweb.cz -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
