Phantomz.8209 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I'm working in a webapp, wich uses the Guild Wars 2 API, and I found this free fonts, **similar** to _Cronos_ and _Eason Pro_, what are to expensive to many developers. * [PT Serif](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/PT+Serif) (Similar to **Eason Pro**). ![PT Serif Preview](https://i.imgur.com/D0x7W2a.png 'PT Serif Preview') * [Cagliostro](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Cagliostro) (Similar to **Cronos**). ![Cagliostro Preview](https://i.imgur.com/ohjaS64.png 'Cagliostro') * [Lato](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Lato) (Similar to **Cronos**). ![Cronos Preview](https://i.imgur.com/m2bg0i7.png 'Cronos') Maybe they are not perfects, but can I think they are pretty close. Both fonts in [Google Fonts](https://fonts.google.com/) & uses [Open Font License ](http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&id=OFL_web) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nokomis.5076 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Question: I can find two font files in the gw2.dat Eason Pro Webfont, which states "This is a protected webfont and is intended for CSS @font-face use ONLY." Menomonia Regular Webfont, which states "Copyright © Chank Co, 2012. All rights reserved. Do not redistribute or alter this font without permission." Even so they are placed onto my computer, one can't just use them, even so they're "provided" somehow I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A font has a copyright owner and no one is allowed to use a font without permission of the copyright owner or it would be a copyright violation. Fonts have different licenses and fonts that are (not free and are) included in an app usually are licensed only to be used in that app from that developer (the developer has to pay for the license and otherwise it would cost the developer much more money). So I am pretty sure, the fonts, that are included in the gw2.dat are only licensed to be used from the GW2 Client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
