Recently, a piece of news that "interns were sued by Founder Group for using Microsoft Yahei fonts, and the company lost 28.6 million" pushed "Microsoft Yahei" to the hot search list on social platforms. For a while, Founder, Microsoft Yahei and the font copyright issue involved have become hot topics among netizens.
In fact, when it comes to font copyright, it is not a recent case of "complaints due to misuse of fonts". As early as 2007, Founder of Peking University sued Blizzard Entertainment Co., Ltd. of the United States for infringing the copyright of five Founder fonts in the Founder Lanting font library, claiming 100 million yuan. During the trial process of the case, Founder of Peking University increased the number of lawsuits and increased the claim amount to 408 million yuan. The case was listed in the "2007 Top Ten Intellectual Property Cases in China". In 2015, 7 characters in the movie "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Nine-story Demon Tower" were also sentenced by the court to infringe the font copyright, and the original author of the font was finally compensated 140,000 yuan.
In the face of the consequences of infringement, in addition to losing money, the company has to withdraw the publicity materials it has sent. At the same time, dealing with legal disputes is also a big expense, and the company or brand image will also be hit.
These examples of "making people look like they have a tight wallet" are all reminding us to strengthen copyright awareness and respect genuine editions. I believe that many designers and new media practitioners have also become trembling because of this: when the content involves commercial use, they must be careful and double check whether the fonts and pictures they use have purchased copyright, otherwise if they encounter huge claims, they will give themselves and The company will suffer considerable losses.
However, you don’t have to worry now, 360 has launched a new gadget——360 Check Fonts.
This tool has two functions:First, users can check the existing fonts on the computer with one click, and mark which ones are "free fonts" and which ones are " Commercial license required" font.
Secondly, users can also search for a specified font on this tool, check the copyright scope of the font, and avoid "stepping on thunder".
Today, when original parties pay more and more attention to "copyright", in order to avoid losses caused by infringement, and at the same time, in order to better respect copyright and regulate the market, we must strengthen copyright awareness, and we cannot wait until infringement has already occurred It was too late to regret. Therefore, designers, new media practitioners, and other staff involved in copyright can use the "360 Font Check" gadget to clear mines in advance and make work smoother!
