- If you read the license Adobe gives out, you are licensed to use the fonts with
- 1 printer/typesetter.
-
- Thus if you have 20 nextstations and two printers, you need to buy two legal
- copies of any font you wish to use on both printers.
-
- If you have a mac with Aardvark Extra Black on it, and you only print to the
- Next printer, then I think you are in the limits of the license to convert the
- fonts for the Next.
-
- If however, you have a Mac printer, then you need a new copy, and may as well
- get them in Next format already.
-
- NOTE: I am NOT a lawyer. These opinions are just possibly worth less than you
- paid for them.
