Typefaces, fonts, and their glyphs raise intellectual property considerations in copyright, trademark, design patent, and related laws. The copyright status of a typeface—and any font file that describes it digitally—varies between jurisdictions. In the United States, the shapes of typefaces are not eligible for copyright, though the shapes may be protected by design patent (although these are rarely applied for, the first US design patent ever awarded was for a typeface). Typefaces can be protected in other countries, including the UK, Germany, and France, by industrial design protections that are similar to copyright or design patent in that they protect the abstract shapes. Additionally, in the US and in some other countries, computer fonts—the digital instantiation of the shapes as vec

* Darf eine bestehende typographische Gestaltung zu Veröffentlichungszwecken übernommen werden (etwa als Reprint)?
* Darf eine handschriftliche Schriftart oder gestaltete Seite eines anderen verwendet werden? Bei konkreten Anwendungsfällen ist immer der Schutz der Schriftart vom Schutz des mit ihr erzeugten Schriftbilds und vom Schutz des damit dargestellten Textes zu unterscheiden. (de)

The name of a typeface may also be protected as a trademark. (en)
