Report FONTS and add NOTICE in Comments
Zitat First, cool site. Very helpful and dangerous at the same time. So I came to make a thread about this little request I have for dafont.
Can we report FONTS that are not 100% free? I think there are fonts that are classified as "100% free" but they're not. Some of it is donation-ware so you have to donate a certain amount first. There is nothing wrong with that but its better if its noted down. I did not see this directed because I post this question in the comments section below.
Is this FONT free to use for TV, Video Games, Print, Internet, Online Applications, Computer Programs etc.? Can you also link the license file?
========================================================
The internet download is limited here so if you can help us read the terms & conditions w/out downloading it would be a great help. Please make sure that 100% free is not the same as Public Domain.
I want to know that the FONTS they are offering as "100% free" should cover all the use for that purpose. If no, then they should not post is as 100% free but rather as DEMO.
I would also like to request that the Author's Notice be posted on the first page of the comments section so we know that fast. Some folks just download it directly w/out know the FONT page has the editors notes. All 100% FREE fonts should be indefinite to avoid issues with the Author's changing mind. Especially, when the FONT gets popular.
The difference between 100% FREE and PUBLIC DOMAIN is that you are not restricted with anything if its public domain while the 100% FREE gives the other some sort of restriction, usually the restriction of ownership.

Veut-tu aussi d'un apple pie chaude?
Seriously, who died, and made you Pope? I sounds like you plan to set up a DaFont clone site, but you want us to tailor that site for you first, so you won't have to do any work. Peel your own grapes, buddy boy.
Sorry, that is not what I meant. I am not making a clone of dafont but there is a site called "http://www.dafonts.com/"; that I got confused with dafont.com
The intent was to make sure or at least really know if those fonts are 100% free since you cannot really see that at the comments page.
The fonts presented on this website are their authors' property, and are either freeware, shareware, demo versions or public domain. The licence mentioned above the download button is just an indication. Please look at the readme-files in the archives or check the indicated author's website for details, and contact him if in doubt.
If no author/licence is indicated that's because we don't have information, that doesn't mean it's free.
As the disclaimer suggest, the "not sure" part. Some say it is 100% free but the author might change his mind half-way and that is something we are trying to avoid.

The latest snapshot of dafonts.com was March 23 2007. It is 7 years that dafonts.com is down. I don't think 'got confused' is the correct term, do you?
