Some designers have to go to other places to find fonts, so here is a reminder: font copyright issues! Whether it is music copyright or font copyright or copyright of any other work, it is all created by the author with painstaking efforts, so we must respect copyright! Respect the author! Use resources correctly!
For example, if the font you need is a positive font library or an instrument font library, you must pay attention to whether the font has the following description:
Personal non-commercial authorization! That is to say, if you work in a company and need to use a font, but you only have personal non-commercial authorization for this font, then you can't use this font in the final version of the company's product market promotion, otherwise it will form the concept of "commercial profit", but in fact you have no commercial authority, so once discovered by the font library, It is likely to receive a letter from the font lawyer! In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, we must pay attention to copyright issues. After all, there are so many fonts, it is not necessary.
