I recently learned that my fonts are being shared in other sites. I found out about this through search engines. I am truly disappointed to know that there are people out there who would not grant a simple request not to share my fonts in other sites and forums in exchange for downloading the fonts for free. The worst thing is that my fonts' documentation were removed when the fonts were redistributed which might make you to assume that the fonts were made by those sites. Then they also monetized the fonts. Because of this, I decided to release all fonts that I make from now on as donationware fonts.
Sometime back, I decided to release some of my fonts as donationware. It means that you have to make a donation if you want to get the font. My plan was to limit donationware fonts to, at most, 10% of all fonts on this site. Also, fonts used by Latin American clubs and federations will only be released as free fonts. These self-imposed conditions will no longer be followed from now on.
Even with the policy changes, all fonts previously released as free fonts will remain free fonts and can be downloaded freely. The fonts that will be released as donationware are those that I made myself. Fonts made by others will still be released as free fonts, like the font that I posted today.
It saddens me to make this decision but it is something that I have to do. I am hoping that you will understand why I came to this decision.
