Question

Photoshop Fonts for commercial use

I would like to start a business creating printables. Such as planners and homeschool curriculum. Are all fonts in my Photoshop application authorized for this use, without getting separate permission? Also, can I use the fonts to make curriculum for young children to trace for learning early penmanship? For example a page with the letter A repeated a few times or a page with the child's name where the font was modified for tracing. If I need to use my own handwriting for this I can, however, I prefer the cleaner lines of a font. Thanks for your help.

    Check here the fonts licensing: https://helpx.adobe.com/fonts/using/font-licensing.html

     

    You can use any creation you do commercially, even if it includes Adobe fonts. Check just this: 

    Can I use the fonts to make stencils, stickers, jewelry, or anything else that features a single letter or glyph?

    No. You may not create a product that is individual glyphs from the font files, e.g. an alphabet set of each letter to spell out your own phrase. Creating products from individual glyphs is not allowed in any format.

    To make sure I understand this correctly, I can create the printables and sell them using the pre installed fonts. However, the tracing pages I want to create are NOT authorized? I would need to purchase a separate license or create the lettering by hand using my own handwriting?

    For example these pages would show the letter "A" about 3 times and then blank lines after for handwriting practice. The child would trace over the typed letter and then try to write the letter on there own. Same concept with numbers, sight words and/or the child's name.
