Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to
share and change it. By contrast, the ARPHIC PUBLIC LICENSE specifically
permits and encourages you to use this software, provided that you give the
recipients all the rights that we gave you and make sure they can get the
modifications of this software.

Legal Terms

0.
Definitions: Throughout this License, "Font" means the TrueType fonts "AR
PL Mingti2L Big5", "AR PL KaitiM Big5" (BIG-5 character set) and "AR PL
SungtiL GB", "AR PL KaitiM GB" (GB character set) which are originally
distributed by Arphic, and the derivatives of those fonts created through
any modification including modifying glyph, reordering glyph, converting
format, changing font name, or adding/deleting some characters in/from
glyph table.

"PL" means "Public License".

"Copyright Holder" means whoever is named in the copyright or copyrights
for the Font.

"You" means the licensee, or person copying, redistributing or modifying
the Font.

"Freely Available" means that you have the freedom to copy or modify the
Font as well as redistribute copies of the Font under the same conditions
you received, not price. If you wish, you can charge for this service.

1.
Copying & Distribution You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
Font in any medium, without restriction, provided that you retain this
license file (ARPHICPL.TXT) unaltered in all copies.

2.
Modification You may otherwise modify your copy of this Font in any way,
including modifying glyph, reordering glyph, converting format, changing
font name, or adding/deleting some characters in/from glyph table, and copy
and distribute such modifications under the terms of Section 1 above,
provided that the following conditions are met:

a)
You must insert a prominent notice in each modified file stating how and
when you changed that file.

b)
You must make such modifications Freely Available as a whole to all third
parties under the terms of this License, such as by offering access to copy
the modifications from a designated place, or distributing the
modifications on a medium customarily used for software interchange.

c)
If the modified fonts normally reads commands interactively when run, you
must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most
ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate
copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying
that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the Font under
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License.

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable
sections of that work are not derived from the Font, and can be reasonably
considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License
and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as
separate works. Therefore, mere aggregation of another work not based on
the Font with the Font on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does
not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3.
Condition Subsequent You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute
the Font except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Font will
automatically retroactively void your rights under this License. However,
parties who have received copies or rights from you under this License will
keep their licenses valid so long as such parties remain in full
compliance.

4.
Acceptance You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to copy, modify,
sublicense or distribute the Font. These actions are prohibited by law if
you do not accept this License. Therefore, by copying, modifying,
sublicensing or distributing the Font, you indicate your acceptance of this
License and all its terms and conditions.

5.
Automatic Receipt Each time you redistribute the Font, the recipient
automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy,
distribute or modify the Font subject to these terms and conditions. You
may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the
rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by
third parties to this License.

6.
Contradiction If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of
patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so
as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any
other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute
the Font at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit
royalty-free redistribution of the Font by all those who receive copies
directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy
both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of
the Font.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

7.
NO WARRANTY BECAUSE THE FONT IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
WARRANTY FOR THE FONT, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT
WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS OR OTHER PARTIES
PROVIDE THE FONT "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO
THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE FONT IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE FONT PROVE
DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
CORRECTION.

8.
DAMAGES WAIVER UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING,
IN NO EVENT WILL ANY COPYRIGHTT HOLDERS, OR OTHER PARTIES WHO MAY COPY,
MODIFY OR REDISTRIBUTE THE FONT AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR
ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR EXEMPLARY
DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE FONT (INCLUDING BUT
NOT LIMITED TO PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES; LOSS OF USE,
DATA OR PROFITS; OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDERS OR OTHER
PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
