Copyright Issues

Fonts:
Fonts can be found from a variety of sources on the internet. There are hundreds of sites where you can download free fonts and use them for personal use (EG making invitations or posters) but as soon as money is made from the creation then copyright issues come into play.


DaFont - This site has thousands of fonts that can be downloaded. On the majority of the fonts there is a disclaimer that says that they are for personal use only. Links are provided to the websites where the full fonts can be purchased. Click here to see an example of this.


Identifont - This site helps to identify fonts that have been seen on publications and other works through the dissection of the anatomy of the fonts themselves. Identifont also doesn't allow commercial use of typefaces unless an agreement is made with Identifont. This statement is on their website, which can be viewed by clicking here along with the copyright statement (click here to view)


FontBook - This is a site where fonts need to be purchased. Prices vary for different fonts, based on the font family. For example, Soho has 40 fonts and costs $2060 for the entire pack, whereas Avante Garde Gothic Pro is only one font and costs $33.50. All the fonts have a User Agreement. To see an example of this, click here for the agreement for Scala Sans.

Terms and Conditions on font usage can be found on FontFont's website. Click here to view
Once fonts have been downloaded onto your computer, the default font program will load and install your font to be used with whichever programs support the font.

Images:
Images off the internet are subject to copyright unless purchased. Using images found on search engines such as Google are technically illegal because ownership belongs to the people who have uploaded the image in the first place. A number of sites exist where images can be purchased and used in any way by the purchaser.

iStockphoto - Generic images are categorized to make it easy to find and purchase using credits bought off the site. Depending on how many credits are purchased determines what type of image can be purchased. Here is a table showing how the breakdown works. Credits purchased in bulk get cheaper the more you buy. Larger files cost more credits.

Getty Images - Getty Images works the same as iStock photo in the way images are categorized and presented, however purchasing is done directly through credit card, not through credits. Pricing also depends on the size of the image and the medium that is used. Click here for the terms and conditions.
