Is attribution required for printed SVGs? #357

Closed SvizelPritula closed 2 years ago

SvizelPritula commented 3 years ago

I want to use some of the emojis in this font in a printed flier, however Scribus does not load this font properly. Therefore, I would have to import the SVGs directly. With the OFL, I would not have to include attribution on my flier. The SVGs are licensed under the Apache license, however, which suggests I would have to include a copy of the Apache license with my flier, which is ridiculous.

Since the SVGs are embeded into an OFL font, can I use them as if they were licensed under OFL? If the scripts in this repo are apparently captable of turning Apache to OFL, could I just replace them with the cp command to get OFL licensed SVGs? How about if I extracted them from the ttf files?
