Die 1996 veröffentlichte Schriftart planet kosmos ist nach eigener Definition „CD-ware“, wie sich noch heute in der mitgelieferten Readme-Datei lesen lässt:
All of the typefaces in the planet Font Family are CD-Ware and free for non-commercial use. That means, for each typeface you want to license for commercial use, you must mail us a CD with something you like: Music you have made, sounds you love, strange art or a peculiar piece of software… It can be a homebrew CD-R signed with a worn-out purple felt pen or a fancy commercial CD. No rules apply, but creativity is always appreciated 🙂
Such a CD in our mailbox buys you a personal, non-transferable but everlasting license to use that typeface for commercial projects. We normally send electronic license confirmations within a couple of days after the receipt of a CD in our mailbox. Just remember to include your email address with the disc, so we know where to send the confirmation.
Der dänische Designer Mads Rydahl scheint auch abgesehen davon eine spannende Persönlichkeit zu sein, unter anderem war er einer der ersten Mitarbeiter von Siri, noch bevor Apple das Start-up 2010 gekauft hat.
