If you find that this package is useful to you, please send me $10.00 (U.S. Funds) to the address listed at the bottom of this document. By sending in the shareware fee you become a registered user. This means that should I have any upgrades to the font, or should I release any new fonts or programs I will notify you.
Most upgrades to this font are free of charge, all I ask is that when an upgrade is released, you send me a blank disk, and postage to cover sending the disk back to you. Also, by becoming a registered user, you may use this font in any documents that you create. This is a single use license, if you are going to be using this font on more than one computer, please send in the registration fee for each computer.

You must also make them aware of their shareware obligations. If they like the font then they must also pay the shareware fee.
You cannot sell, rent, or modify this font without asking me permission first. If you are a company that provides PD and Shareware software to the public (i.e. Educorp, Somak Software, etc.), you must include the entire font package. Also, telling me that you have it would be great.
If you find that this package is not to your liking then delete it from your system file and remove any copies (archives included) that you may have.
