Adobe KaiTi's license

Sep 29, 2011 5:33 AM

I'm having a hard time trying to understand how Adobe's fonts can and cannot be distributed.

 

In particular, I would like to use Adobe KaiTi for my desktop software. The font file itself will not be distributed but the outlines will be embedded and encrypted within a database. Then the software reads this database, displays a character and show how the character should be drawn. The user cannot type or save text using the font. Does Adobe KaiTi's license allow this?

 

Edit: for information the font embeddability on Windows is "Editable" which means "can be embedded within content that can be edited by the user."
