“Apple Color Emoji.ttf”的许可证 [英] License of "Apple Color Emoji.ttf"
问题描述
OS X Lion的 / System / Library / Fonts / Apple Color Emoji.ttf ？
在本文苹果公司的Peter Edberg说：
如前所述，苹果公司希望使用许可证制作苹果表情符号字体 -
和字形 - b $ b任何人都可以在他们认为合适的情况下对其进行更改，或者将其
字形与其他字体的字形组合起来，而苹果公司不会获得任何此类更改的权利。我们要强加的唯一条件是：a）
名称Apple Emoji只能用于原始未修改的
字体;如果字体被修改或与另一种字体结合，那么
结果必须具有不同的名称（没有Apple）。 b）
原始字体，或者从它衍生出的或者包含它的部分
的字体不能作为独立包装出售。 （但是，它可能是作为一个包装出售的系统的一部分包括在内的
）。否则，一个
的第三方应该可以自由使用这个字体，或适应它，修改
it，扩展它，分发它等。
然而，在发布时（2009年），苹果并没有决定实际的许可证。我试图找出现在，但我找不到一个更正式的许可证声明。
[更新2014年3月12日：我有现在邮寄埃德伯格先生，并要求澄清。] 解决方案
Edberg已经回答了我的问题（我的强调）：
根据emoji4unicode发布许可的字体不是苹果彩色表情符号，这是从来没有考虑过许可。相反，它是一个单独的黑色&白色的Apple Emoji字体主要是作为Unicode和ISO 10646增加表情符号的提案的一部分而开发的，以便提供在代码表中使用的字形等等。据我所知，它不是一种字体已经包含在运送苹果产品中。
所以答案是没有Apple Color Emoji.ttf的许可证。 / p>
IANAL，顺便说一句。
What's the license of OS X Lion's /System/Library/Fonts/Apple Color Emoji.ttf?
In this posting Apple's Peter Edberg says:
As previously stated, Apple would like to make the Apple Emoji font - and the glyphs therefrom - widely available using a license that makes it possible for anyone to change it as they see fit or to combine its glyphs with those from another font, without Apple acquiring any
rights to such changes. The only conditions we want to impose are: a) The name "Apple Emoji" can only be used for the original unmodified
font; if the font is modified or combined with another font, the
result must have a different name (without "Apple" in it). b) The original font, or one derived from it or incorporating parts of it, can not be sold as a stand-alone package. (However, it it could be
included as part of a system which is sold as a package). Otherwise a third party should be free to use the font, or to adapt it, modify it, extend it, distribute it, etc.
However, at the time of that posting (2009), Apple had not decided about the actual license. I tried to find out now, but I could not find a more official license statement.
[Update 2014-03-12: I have now mailed Mr. Edberg and asked for clarification.]
Mr. Edberg has answered me (my emphasis):
The font being considered for licensing as per the emoji4unicode posting [...] was not "Apple Color Emoji", which was never considered for licensing. Rather, it was a separate black & white "Apple Emoji" font mainly developed as part of the proposal to Unicode and ISO 10646 for the addition of emoji characters, in order to provide glyphs for use in the code charts etc. As far as I know it is not a font that ever been included in shipping Apple products.
So the answer is that there is no license for 'Apple Color Emoji.ttf' available.
IANAL, by the way.
