Und da die diese, wie sie ist, zu jedem Zeitpunkt auf unserer Seite heruntergeladen werden kann, braucht die PDF auch nicht freigestellt zu werden.

Pedantics keep claiming that the embedded use of GPL-fonts in i.e. PDFs requires the free publication of the PDF as well. This, of course, is absolute nonsense, because - to our opinion - the font is not significantly changed by the embedding. And as long as the font (as is) can be downloaded at our website there is also no need to licence the PDF under the GPL. The GPL has been developed for the use with source codes and programs. But as TrueTypes are more a kind of markuplanguage the GPL has to be interpreted a little wider. The development of an own font licence is a lot of work for just our font family.
