Use of fonts embedded in photoshop for commerical use? (Static content, like images)

Hello.
I am developing a Mobile game for Android, and I can't stop thinking about if i am in the clear when it comes to the use of fonts. I've searched the web, but can't really find a clear answer.
I am using only font embedded in photoshop/illustrator, and only displaying them in static content, such as Images/logos. So my question is, am I in the clear, or do I need som kind for special license for this?
FYI I am mostly using the MonoType Impact font. I stumbled over this though, its Monotypes Imaging EULA for fonts ( I think). It says :
You may embed static graphic images into an electronic document, including a Commercial Product, (for example, a "gif") with a representation of a typeface and typographic design or ornament created with the Font Software as long as such images are not used as a replacement for Font Software, i.e. as long as the representations do not correspond to individual glyphs of the Font Software and may not be individually addressed by the document to render such designs and ornaments.
Would appreciate any help, thanks!

you can access them from <bpelx:exec> activity and you can pass these returned document to underlying java class.

Installing & Using a Font in Adobe Photoshop - Kindly Help me

Hi Friends !
I hope all is well and great !
My name is Kush and I'm from India.
Friends, I have Windows XP and I desperately need to use this Font called "Arsalannian" The problem is that it is not compatible with Windows XP and so I'm not able to install it in Windows. I need to use this font in Adobe Photoshop.
The font can be found here - [url]http://www.sofontes.com.br/en/Arslannian/download/1866[/url]
Friends, is there any way that I can use this font in Adobe Photoshop Directly. Is there any way that I can type the Title (just 2 words) that I want in this Font, in some other application (is there any such online or OS independent text application that does not require the font to be installed in Windows) and then copy and paste it in Adobe Photoshop ?
I do have a scan of the Title that I want to use as a Jpeg Image, but I want it as a Text.
Will be a great help if you can kindly guide me on how to do this or any way to use / load the font in Adobe Photoshop. Please help me Friends.
Thanks and Regards
Kush

that font file looks like it's corrupted. Not much you can do about it other than trying to download it from another location. (things like this happen from time to time with free fonts)

Is it better to export an iMovie project as QT and use Toast to burn a DVD for general use or to export to iDVD and burn VD from there? Why?

Is it better to export an iMovie project as QT and use Toast to burn a DVD for general use - or to export iMovie project to iDVD and burn DVD from there? Why?

Toast probably maintains better quality if you are just doing simple conversion direct from your camera straight into Toast and then to DVD. There's a lot less transcoding steps and loss of quality in that direct to DVD disk creation in Toast. However, having said that,...There's good arguments probably for both.
What I've seen promoted most often (as most people don't have Toast or aren't motivated to buy it) is to Share to Media Browser (choose the Large size option) and then from inside iDVD click the Media Button and the Movies button to find the project under the iMovie star icon in the Media Browser window. Drag that project into your iDVD project and burn the disk.

Font usage (=fonts embedded in Illustrator)for stock design (=commercial purpose)

Hi,
I have a question concerning the commercial usage of the fonts incorporated in Illustrator. Is it legal to use them (after converted into outlines) for creating stock vectors and then selling them on stockphotos/designs web pages? If I have purchased the product itself, do I have to purchse also the embedded fonts separately in order to create files for commercial purposes? I would be grateful if you could provide me a clear and concreate answer. I have been searching for a month to get a response and I haven't found it yet. Thank you very much for your precious help.

I will assume that by “fonts incorporated in Illustrator” you actually mean fonts that are installed by Adobe as part of the installation of Illustrator. My response also applies for any other fonts licensed from the Adobe Type Library directly from Adobe.
You may use and embed fonts using Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop PDF and EPS output file formats without any restriction. That includes embedding them in files that you license to others. You don't need to outline or rasterize the text to remain legal. In fact, outlining degrades output quality since you lose “intelligent scaling” provided by the font technology and font definitions with result of overly bold and blotchy looking text at low magnifications and resolutions. Rasterizing is even worse since the results are tied to a particular resolution.
What you may not do is to sell artwork in .AI (Illustrator), .INDD (InDesign), or any one of the Photoshop formats with layers preserving live text and include the fonts as separate files. (You obviously could distribute such source files without the fonts and point your customers to where to license them!)
Clearly, the best option in terms of output of your artwork and designs for resale would not outlining or rasterizing text and saving or exporting as PDF (either PDF/X-4 or High Quality Print options) maintaining color management and live transparency (if used).
- Dov
PS: This advice with regards to fonts may or may not apply to fonts sourced elsewhere. You must read the EULA (End User License Agreement) associated with the fonts you plan to license. Some may allow embedding but require royalties for the distributed PDF or EPS files that have the fonts embedded. Some prohibit outlining or treat outlining the same in terms of restrictions as embedding the font itself. And some have similar restrictions on rasterization. Check such terms before you license a font!!! Yes, you must read the licenses!

How can I tell if a font is legal or for commercial use?

I am working in Illustrator and I need to create posters with commercial use fonts.
How do I know for sure that the font I am using is legal? Can Illustrator tell me?
I have experimented with a font I know is commercial and one that I know is not and
while packaging the project Illustrator gave me the same generic message for both.
This is the only message that is gives me.
I work on a Macbook Pro, a colleague of mine works on a PC, when he packages his projects
it will tell him if the font is legal or not.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

The option to package a font file is there to make sure that the one who receives the file will use the same version of the font as you did when you created the file.
The receiver must have his own license of the font, that could be an older version that misses some characters (like the €) and packaging the font file allows him to use your version.
Saving your file as a PDF is a better option if the receiver does not need to edit the file. The original font is not needed since the characters you have used are embedded in the pdf.
All fonts from the Adobe type library may be embedded in a PDF.
But this has nothing to do with the question if you can use a font for a commercial poster.
Of course you can, if you bought the font license, you can use it in your design, but Illustrator cannot tell you if you bought the font.
In the rare occasion that you are having trouble with embedding the font in a PDF, create outlines.

Can I use Type -- 'convert to outline' in Illustrator on Typekit fonts I've 'designated for desktop use'? I've not been able to as of yet.

I'm trying to print vinyl letters for a gallery I'm a member of and love the Cronos Pro regular font. i've designated this for desktop use and created 24 name files at 200pt. The person working with the vinyl asked if I could 'convert to outline' possibly to make the font a bit larger, I don't really know. When I tried to do this, I found that choice grayed out on the type menu. I am wondering if this means the Typekit fonts 'designated for desktop use' simply do not have the permission to be 'converted to outline'.

Cutting always requires proper paths/ outlines. This has nothing to do with the font or large format printing per se. Beyond that there should be no limitation in using fonts - as long as you can mangle them in AI, it means that somewhere those outlines exist internal to the program so the type can actually be rendered. Whatever prevents this may more likely be inherent in how you treat your text. you would have to provide more specific info on that. Either way, ask in the AI forum for more detailed answers.

Using a font embedded swf in mxml

Hello,
We need to load in fonts at runtime due to localization needs. I've got this working in an AS3 project in Flex by embedding the font in a class and then loading that swf into another class and registering the font.
What I need now is to be able to use that font class in MXML components like a spark label. I can't seem to get it to work though. I've tried referencing the swf in a style sheet, then making a style class in the CSS using that font like this:
/* Embed.css */
@font-face {
     src: url("_Arial.swf");
     fontFamily: "_Arial";
.genericTextArial
font-family: "_Arial";
fontSize: 40;
color: #000000;
Then in the MXML I have this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                  xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                  xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" minWidth="955" minHeight="600">
     <fx:Style source="Embed.css"/>
     <s:Label text="This should display my embedded text." width="100%" styleName="genericTextArial"/>
</s:Application>
However I can't seem to get it to render. I've also tried the method of embedding the font in a text field in Flash Professional and loading in that swf and it doesn't work either. Am I missing a parameter or just going about this the wrong way?

Thank you, that worked! I actually didn't know exactly how to do that at first but I found this great blog post that explains it:

Can I use a real copy of Photoshop for as long as I am paying for the Creative Cloud?

Hello, I am on Windows 8 and need a working copy of Photoshop but an outright purchase was just too expensive for me. So I subscribed to the cloud in hopes that I could just pay monthly for the software. But when I download Photoshop CC I see that it is still asking me for a serial number. So my question is, is the cloud monthly fee enabling me to use the software ongoing? Or do I still need to purchase something else at some point?

Ask for serial number http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1234635 has a FAQ link
Cloud programs do not use serial numbers... you log in to your paid Cloud account to download & install & activate... you MAY need to log out of the Cloud and restart your computer and log back in to the Cloud for things to work

How can I download Photoshop for OSX using Windows?

Dear all:
Hi. I need to download Photoshop trial for OSX (in order to test the product on an iMac) but I'm using Windows so it seems the Download Manager automatically tries to download the Windows version od Photoshop instead of the OSX version. How can I change that?.
Best Regards

CarlosNegroni you can download a Mac version by initiating a direct download. Please see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369 for more information on how to accomplish this.

I just purchased two Macbook Air along with two Time Capsule (2TB) for my kids. Meanwhile I use a sagemcom ADLS modem/router for home use. Can I connect both Time Capsule and laptop which will allow both laptop to have their own backup system?

I want both of the computers to have their own independent time capsule.

want both of the computers to have their own independent time capsule.
I assume that you are asking about using the Time Capsules for Time Machine backups here, correct?
If yes, both MBAs will be able to select the specific Time Capsule that they will use for backups, so "point" MBA1 to Time Capsule 1 and MBA2 to Time Capsule 2.
Since you will have plenty of available backup space if you use two Time Capsules, you might want to consider having each MBA back up to both Time Capsule 1 and Time Capsule 2.
This way, if one Time Capsule fails, you will still have a complete set of backups for both MBAs.

Can I use iMovie to create a video for youtube using an MP3 and a video?

I have some music I've recorded on Logic Pro that I'd like to post on youtube and am trying to figure the easiest way to link it with either still photos or a video so it'd be OK for youtube. What's the best way to go about this please?

just drag 'n drop your jpg and your mp3 into the timeline of your Project - done.
Depending on what version of iM you're using, you can directly upload from within iMovie, or you have to export first, then use YT's upload web interface ...
in case you own a licence of Quicktime Pro, open a jpg with it, open in a 2nd window your mp3, select all, copy, paste to picture - done .. no 'fullsize editor' needed.

As a student in the UK, would I be able to legally use a CS5.5 student license for commercial use?

And if so, will I be able to continue using it commercially when I am no longer a student?
If you are able to answer, please cite a source.
Thanks!

I read over the product license agreement for flash, I couldn't find anything about the student version. I have done a bit of research, and according to this site I can use the student and teacher editions commercially. However I'm unsure of whether this applies to the UK. I realise you won't have the answers, but could you possibly point me in the right direction? For instance, is there anywhere on the site that would allow me to talk with an actual adobe representative?
Thanks for the reply!

Do the fonts in Photoshop CS4 have any restrictions for commercial use?

I am a designer and I wanted to know if there were any restrictions in the Photoshop CS4 Extended version concerning font usage? I have read all the terms but I got confused after awhile. I wanted to make sure there are no restricted usage if I use any of the fonts incorporated into my designs which are then resold? Thank you in advance!

Thank you for your response. Just to be clear: essentially I can use the fonts in my designs for say cell phone skins and music album covers but cannot not ( of course) resell the original fonts correct? Thanks again for your help! I have tried calling and been on hold forever, then tried emailing support and they said I had to call because it is a technical issue. Lawyer speak in the terms confuses me easily:)

Font embedding chinese

Hi all,
I need to know if font embedding is possible for multilingual data ( ie chinese data). I have SimSun.ttf which I converted to afm and pfb files using ttf2pt1 tool. But there were lots of exception when the conversion was done. When i try to embed the font using the pdf-embed option the pdf is not getting opened atall. Can anyone give any inputs on this.
can we generate pdf with embed option that has chinese data. What font is proposed for the embeding. I am unable to get correct afm and pfb fonts.

i have installed the acrobat asian font pack. I have the stsong font. it is a cid font. Can anybody tell how to embed a cid font in a pdf. I couldn't find any online resources that would help me do this.

Font embedding marginal value

Hey...
when i do an export from document to pdf-file, i embed all the used fonts. there is a margin value - automatically setted to 100 %.
i know, when i use 100 % only used characters got embedded as subassemblies.When i use 0 % the whole font type with all coded characters is embedded.
my question is: why should people embed fonts less than 100 %? Like for example 40 %. Because the effect is the same, isn't it?
Also the file size between embedding all characters or embedding just subassemblies is not so much different that i can see the advantage of embed only the characters that are used in my document. For me this does not make sense. I hope anybody can help me with these questions.
Thanks

There have been a few reasons to embed 100%, but the reasons are generally related to odd fonts used in form fields (best to stick to the Adobe default fonts) or for editing, that is generally not a good idea for PDFs. I use embed all as subsets. I embed all for those who may be using a viewer other than an Adobe product and might not interpret the fonts correctly (I have seen this in GhostView).
