What the OFL 1.1 lets you do with Bungee
Verdicts are our plain-English reading of the SIL Open Font License 1.1; the right-hand column names the clause each one rests on. This is not legal advice.
| Use | Verdict | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Use it on a website (self-hosted or via the Google Fonts API)Yes. Embedding is explicitly permitted. Self-hosted font files must keep the copyright notice and license; the OFL lets that live in the font file’s own metadata, which Google Fonts files already carry. | yes | Permission & Conditions: “use, study, copy, merge, embed, modify, redistribute”; condition 2 on including the notice and license. |
| Print, packaging, posters, PDFs and other documentsYes. Documents you create with the font are not covered by the OFL’s distribution conditions at all. | yes | Condition 5: “The requirement for fonts to remain under this license does not apply to any document created using the Font Software.” |
| Set a logo or wordmark in itYes. A logo is a document made with the font, so the OFL places no restriction on it. Note that other people can use the same font, and trademark registration is a separate question the font license does not answer. | yes | Condition 5 (documents are outside the license); OFL FAQ on logos and trademarks. |
| Put it on products I sell (T-shirts, mugs, book covers)Yes. Printed or embroidered artwork is a document created with the font, and selling that product is not selling the font. | yes | Condition 5 (documents); condition 1 only forbids selling the font software by itself. |
| Bundle the font file inside an app, game or software I sellYes, with conditions. You may bundle and even sell the font inside software, as long as each copy includes the copyright notice and the OFL text (a license file or the font’s metadata). | with conditions | Condition 2: bundled, redistributed and/or sold with any software, provided that each copy contains the copyright notice and this license. |
| Modify the font (add glyphs, change shapes, subset) and ship itYes, with conditions. Modified versions must stay under the OFL, must not use any Reserved Font Name without written permission, and must not use the authors’ names to promote the modified version. | with conditions | Conditions 3, 4 and 5 (Reserved Font Names, author names, remain under OFL). |
| Sell the font file on its own (or in a font bundle)No. The font, modified or not, may not be sold by itself. You can sell things made with it, or software that includes it, but not the font file as the product. | no | Condition 1: “Neither the Font Software nor any of its individual components, in Original or Modified Versions, may be sold by itself.” |
| Use it in video, broadcast, social posts or adsYes. Rendered text in video, images or ads is output created with the font, which the OFL does not restrict. | yes | Condition 5 (documents created using the Font Software). |
