– 特别声明 –
本文为《SIL开源字型授权》（SIL Open Font License，简称《SIL OFL》或《OFL》）的非官方简体中文翻译。本声明并非由 SIL 国际 (SIL International) 发布，也不是采用《OFL》的字型软件的法定发布条款。以《OFL》授权的字型软件发布版本只在使用英语原文条款时有效。
但是，我们承认这份非官方翻译可以帮助不熟悉英语的用户和设计师更好地理解《SIL OFL》，并更加容易地在本字型协作设计模式下使用和发布字型家族。如果可以的话，我们鼓励各位设计师在考虑使用《OFL》发布字型创作之前，以母语阅读《常见问题目录》（FAQ）了解详情。

SIL开源字型授权 1.1 版 – 2007 年 2 月 26 日
==============================
序言
《开源字型授权》（Open Font License，简称《OFL》）旨在促进全球字型协作项目的共同开发，支持学术及语言学团体对于字型创作的努力，以及提供一个自由开源的基本框架，让字型能在彼此合作的关系中分享与改进。
OFL允许以本授权释出的字型自由地使用、研究、修改和再分发(redistributed)，而该释出字型不得被单独销售。该字型，以及任何其衍生作品 (derivative works)，可以与任何软件捆绑 (bundled)、嵌入 (embedded)、再分发以及／或一并销售，前提是衍生作品不得使用任何保留字型名称 (reserved names)。然而，该释出字型与其衍生作品不得在任何其他授权条款下发布。本授权针对释出字型“必须以同样授权释出”的要求规定，并不适用于任何使用该释出字型或其衍生作品创建的任何文档。
定义
“字型软件” (font software) 指由版权持有者（或著作权人，copyright holder(s)）通过本授权下发布释出并明确标示本授权的一系列文件。“字型软件”可以包括源文件(source files)、构建脚本 (build script) 以及说明文档。
“保留字型名称” (Reserved Font Name) 指在版权声明后、被特别标示指定为“保留字型名称”的任何名称。
“原始版本（或简称原版）” (original version) 指版权持有者所分发的“字型软件”构件的集合。
“修改版本” (modified version) 指通过增加、删除或替换 (substituting) “原始版本”中的任何部分或整体构件、转换字型软件的格式或移植字型软件到新的运作环境中而产生的衍生版本。
“作者” (author) 指任何为“字型软件”做出贡献的设计师、工程师、程序员、技术文档工程师 (technical writer) 或其他人员。
许可与条件
特此允许任何取得本“字型软件”副本的个人，授予免费使用、研究、复制、合并、嵌入、修改、再分发以及销售已修改和未修改的字型副本，但需要遵守下列所规定的条件：
1) 无论是“原始版本”或“修改版本”，“字型软件”或其中任何独立的个别构件，均不能被单独销售。
2) “字型软件”的“原始版本”或“修改版本”可以与任何软件捆绑 (bundled)、再分发以及／或一并销售，前提为每份软件副本都必须包含本授权条款上述的版权声明 (copyright notice) 以及本授权条款全文。这些版权声明与条款全文可以被放置在独立纯文本文件、人类可读信息头、或文本／二进制文件内适当的、用户易于查阅浏览的机器可读元数据字段。
3) “修改版本”的“字型软件”不得使用“保留字型名称”，除非相应名称的版权持有者授予明确的书面同意许可。此项限制仅适用于对用户显示的主要字型名称 (primary font name)。
4) 版权持有者或“字型软件”的作者姓名不应被使用来推广、认可或宣传任何“修改版本”的字型。不过，在取得版权持有者的书面同意许可前提下，可以进行以上行为；向版权持有者和作者的贡献致谢而标示姓名也不在此列。
5) “字型软件”，无论已修改或未修改、部分或整体，均必须完全通过本授权下分发，不得在任何其他授权条款下分发。本授权针对释出字型“必须以同样授权释出”的要求规定，并不适用于任何使用该“字型软件”创建的任何文档。
终止授权
假如上述任一条款无法被遵守，本授权条款将会失效 (null and void)。

– Special Disclaimer –
This is an unofficial translation of the SIL Open Font License into Chinese (Simplified). It was not published by SIL International, and does not legally state the distribution terms for fonts that use the OFL. A release under the OFL is only valid when using the original English text.
However, we recognize that this unofficial translation will help users and designers not familiar with English to understand the SIL OFL better and make it easier to use and release font families under this collaborative font design model. We encourage designers who consider releasing their creation under the OFL to read the FAQ in their own language if it is available.
Please go to https://scripts.sil.org/OFL for the official version of the license and the accompanying FAQ.

==============================
SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE Version 1.1 – 26 February 2007
==============================
PREAMBLE
The goals of the Open Font License (OFL) are to stimulate worldwide development of collaborative font projects, to support the font creation efforts of academic and linguistic communities, and to provide a free and open framework in which fonts may be shared and improved in partnership with others.
The OFL allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and redistributed freely as long as they are not sold by themselves. The fonts, including any derivative works, can be bundled, embedded, redistributed and/or sold with any software provided that any reserved names are not used by derivative works. The fonts and derivatives, however, cannot be released under any other type of license. The requirement for fonts to remain under this license does not apply to any document created using the fonts or their derivatives.
DEFINITIONS
“Font Software” refers to the set of files released by the Copyright Holder(s) under this license and clearly marked as such. This may include source files, build scripts and documentation.
“Reserved Font Name” refers to any names specified as such after the copyright statement(s).
“Original Version” refers to the collection of Font Software components as distributed by the Copyright Holder(s).
“Modified Version” refers to any derivative made by adding to, deleting, or substituting — in part or in whole — any of the components of the Original Version, by changing formats or by porting the Font Software to a new environment.
“Author” refers to any designer, engineer, programmer, technical writer or other person who contributed to the Font Software.
