FONT RECOGNITION VIA FONT MOOSE




Computer programs not patentable in Europe On July 6, 2005, the European Union parliament dismissed the EU commission proposal concerning software patents with a 95 per cent majority with the consequence that in EU states, computer programs in general and hence also font programs are not protectible by patent. This rejection was the result of a heated discussion in recent months.	EXTERNAL LINKS MyFonts search Monotype search Fontspring search Google search INTERNAL LINKS David and Goliath ⦿
