#Future of Amiga
Andrew,
Close. Font copyrights extend to the name and _the method of generation_
You can copyright a font that outputs perfectly identical to another, just
so long as it's named differently and the generating code/nethod is not the
same.
This is primarily directed toward scalable fonts. As you stated, you
just have so many bits to play with in bitmap fonts, plus, unless you like
EBDIC and suchlike, ASCII codes limit the range somewhat. 8)
