Well why didn't you say so before, or better yet explain precisely how this works and how independent type foundries will go about implementing it -- then we'll let you know what our 'problem' is, if any remain. By 'your' embedding DLL, I presume you are referring to OpenType. If so, I'm very glad to hear it, as David Lemon long since succeeded in convincing me of the basic virtues of the OT format and I hoped it might also provide better protection than other embedding schemes. Taking into account that a great many type designers are not necessarily programmers, perhaps you could explain to us, in simple terms, how this is going to work. If it provides the kind of security we're looking for, OT can expect our full support and encouragement.
