All rights reserved except as specified below.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this

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.
