Why Protect your
Work?
Why Protect your Work?

The devlopment of fonts and new technologies is expensive and financed through sales

Font piracy is everywhere.

Designers would have no
authorship rights to their
designs without protection
Nothing would stop pirates
from copying fonts. En-
forcement of intellectual
property rights is only
possible with correct
protection

No sale of fonts is
possible without
documented authorship
(designer and
manufactuerer) and
without a contract (End
