ARPHIC PUBLIC LICENSE

Copyright (C) 1999 Arphic Technology Co., Ltd.
11Fl. No.168, Yung Chi Rd., Taipei, 110 Taiwan
All rights reserved except as specified below.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
license document, but changing it is forbidden.

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.
