fsType bits in OS/2 tables should be all set to zero #15

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The value of the fsType bits in the OS/2 table of all/most of the fonts is 
mistakenly set to 0x0008, but should be set to zero.

Here's what 0x0008 means: "[...] the font may be embedded but must only be 
installed *temporarily* on other systems [...]".

Here's what zero means: "Fonts with this setting indicate that they may be 
embedded and permanently installed on the remote system by an application. The 
user of the remote system acquires the identical rights, obligations and 
licenses for that font as the original purchaser of the font [...]".
