Helvetica Neue Light with @font-face .. legal?
提问by John Hunt
My team and I have developed a site using the Helvetica Neue Light font face via @font-face in our stylesheet.
我和我的团队通过样式表中的 @font-face 使用 Helvetica Neue Light 字体开发了一个网站。
We're curious about whether it's legal for us to do this and who owns that font (if anyone?) Does anyone know how we can find this out - google just shows lots of sites trying to sell us the font.
我们很好奇我们这样做是否合法以及谁拥有该字体（如果有的话？）有谁知道我们如何找到这个 - 谷歌只是显示了许多试图向我们出售该字体的网站。
I understand it's a system font on most mac computers, so maybe its license is pretty open?
我知道它是大多数 mac 计算机上的系统字体，所以也许它的许可证非常开放？

If you are just referencing the users system fonts then the licensing requirement is on the User.
如果您只是引用用户系统字体，则许可要求针对用户。
If you are providing the font then you (or your client) will need to licence the Font -- even if it's a free font there will likely be some form of licence.
如果您提供字体，那么您（或您的客户）将需要获得该字体的许可——即使它是免费字体，也可能会有某种形式的许可。
@font-face uses two forms of reference: LOCALwhich references the user's system font and URLwhich effectively uses a copy of a font which you provide and as there is very little point in using the @fontface rule if you aren't going to provide the font then it's almost certain that you'll need to actively obtain a licence.
@font-face 使用两种形式的引用：LOCAL引用用户的系统字体和URL，它有效地使用您提供的字体副本，因为如果您不打算使用 @fontface 规则，则几乎没有意义提供字体然后几乎可以肯定您需要主动获得许可证。
for example:
例如：
@font-face {
font-family: myHelveticaLight;
src: local("Helvetica Neue Light"),
local("HelveticaNeue-Light");
}
Here you are only referencing a user's installed system font and therefore have no have responsibility for obtaining the licence.
此处您仅参考用户安装的系统字体，因此不负责获取许可证。
In the following example you are also providing a fallback copy of the font so you must have actively obtained a web licence for that font (or rather your client or the website owner will need to)
在以下示例中，您还提供了该字体的后备副本，因此您必须主动获得该字体的网络许可（或者您的客户或网站所有者需要）
@font-face {
font-family: myHelveticaLight;
src: local("Helvetica Neue Light"),
local("HelveticaNeue-Light"),
url(HelveticaNeueLight.ttf);
}

Apple pays for its system fonts, so the inclusion of a font in Apple's operating systems doesn't tell you much. That particular font is owned by Linotype and sold for profit. A quick Google tells me fonts.com offers Neue Helvetica Lightas a Web font, so you might take a look there.
Apple 为其系统字体付费，因此在 Apple 的操作系统中包含字体并不能告诉您太多信息。该特定字体归 Linotype 所有，并以盈利为目的出售。一个快速的谷歌告诉我fonts.com 提供 Neue Helvetica Light作为网络字体，所以你可以看看那里。

Just took a look, and its actually Adobe who owns it, and they sell it for money. So, my bestguess is no, you couldn't legally use it for free. I have no idea if Adobe licenses it, though. Maybe you could try and find one that's licensed for web use, and is similar to Helvetica?
刚刚看了一下，实际上是 Adobe 拥有它，并且他们将其出售以赚钱。所以，我最好的猜测是不，你不能合法地免费使用它。不过，我不知道 Adobe 是否许可它。也许您可以尝试找到一种已获得网络使用许可且与 Helvetica 类似的软件？

Embedding it using @font-face would probably be illegal (unless the foundry that owns it has extended their EULAs). Helvetica is pretty widespread as it comes standard with mac and Arial (almost identical) is standard on PCs. If you aren't using any of the more fancy weights that come with Helvetica Neue, I'm sure you could just specify Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif and it would show up fine on most machines.
使用@font-face 嵌入它可能是非法的（除非拥有它的代工厂已经扩展了他们的 EULA）。Helvetica 非常普遍，因为它是 mac 的标准，而 Arial（几乎相同）是 PC 的标准。如果您不使用 Helvetica Neue 附带的任何更花哨的字重，我相信您可以只指定 Helvetica、Arial、sans-serif，它会在大多数机器上正常显示。
You could try searching Font Squirrelfor a substitute, or use images if the font's EULA is restricted. TypeKitalso offers many classic fonts for web-embedding for a fee. Helvetica is not one of them, but you might request them to add it.
您可以尝试在Font Squirrel 中搜索替代品，或者如果字体的 EULA 受到限制，则使用图像。TypeKit还提供了许多收费的网络嵌入经典字体。Helvetica 不是其中之一，但您可能会要求他们添加它。

I believe there is only one official Helvetica Neue, and, as stated by Chuck, owned by linotype. So, you'll have to ask them. (Last I checked, they don't allow it, but I've since heard they've started opening up some of their font licenses for @font-face use...)
我相信只有一个官方的 Helvetica Neue，而且正如 Chuck 所说，归 linotype 所有。所以，你得问问他们。（上次我检查，他们不允许这样做，但我听说他们已经开始为@font-face 使用开放他们的一些字体许可证......）
But, in general, you need to read the license of the individual font. That's the only way to know. Even then, licenses can be rather vague, so you usually want to go back to the foundry and ask them directly.
但是，一般来说，您需要阅读单个字体的许可证。这是唯一知道的方法。即便如此，许可证也可能相当模糊，因此您通常希望回到代工厂并直接询问他们。

No.
不。
You may install one copy of the Software on one Computer file server within your Internal Network for the purpose of downloading and installing the Software on up to the Permitted Number of other Computers within the same Internal Network,
您可以在您的内部网络中的一台计算机文件服务器上安装本软件的一份副本，以便在同一内部网络内最多允许数量的其他计算机上下载和安装本软件，
Which is 5 for this specific license.
对于此特定许可证，这是 5 。
