Myriad Pro frei in Office Programmen auf 40 PCs?

Hallo, 
Kann die Schriftfamilie Myriad Pro in einer kleinen Firma auf etwa 40 PCs in office-Programmen kostenlos verwendet werden? Oder ist eine Lizenzierung nötig? 
Würde es reichen, ein Abo für ein Adobe-Produkt (Photoshop oder inDesign) zu haben, um die Schrift frei verwenden zu können? 

Correct answer Bobby Henderson

Computers that are running Open Office or MS Office and have no Adobe applications installed would need their own commercially purchased licenses of Myriad Pro.

 

Adobe applications, such as InDesign, have a limited number of Myriad Pro fonts included in application folders. There are static fonts covering the basic regular, italic, bold and bold-italic styles. There are two "variable concept" fonts that only work in Adobe applications.

 

The more complete Myriad Pro family available at Adobe Fonts doesn't download any font files that can be copied to other computers; the font data is somewhat hidden from a computer's file system.

If the computers are running Adobe applications as part of a Creative Cloud subscription they would be able to add Myriad Pro via the Adobe Fonts service. The Myriad Pro fonts can be installed for all applications (including office applications) by using the Creative Cloud Desktop App.

 

If the computers are not running Adobe applications they would need licensed versions of Myriad Pro.

but use of the font is only permitted on the computer that has the Adobe Crative programmes installed, for example. For all other computers that only have Open Office or MS Office packages installed, does the font have to be purchased or licensed separately?
Is it permitted to use Myriad Pro in areas that are locked if other fonts are used in the other areas?
