Can some one please put me onto the article, and or the legislation? I wish to read the article before forming any conclusions, but it would appear to me,according to what was represented to me, that the legislation would require a licence fee from anyone using any device capable of generating a font. Is this correct? I'd appreciate a pointer to the article, etc, and will post a summary if requested to by more than 2 people Cheers Woody
