Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
I'm querying this list out of the need of adding a new license[1] for |
4 |
adobe-pcfi[2]. |
5 |
|
6 |
Suggested name for the license is adobe-pcfi. An other possibility |
7 |
could be Adobe-PCFI to better match other Adobe* licenses. |
8 |
|
9 |
The license would be added to the MISC-FREE license group. |
10 |
|
11 |
If you have any doubts let me know before I proceed in about a week. |
12 |
|

|

Thanks to ssuominen and robbat2 for their initial guidance. |
15 |
Cheers, Ralph. |

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/font/#pcfi and elsewhere. See the individual |
31 |

Any Adobe patents covering information in these files should be included in |
34 |
the patent pledge they have made to ISO for the PDF 1.7 standard. Here's what |
35 |
Adobe legal wrote when asked about this: |
36 |
|
37 |
"Adobe has provided a patent pledge to ISO which states that Adobe will |
38 |
grant a fee and royalty free license to an unrestricted number of |
39 |
applicants on a worldwide, non-discriminatory basis and under other |
40 |
reasonable terms and conditions to make, use, and sell implementations |
41 |
of PDF 1.7 (ISO 32000-1)." |
