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.
