Font

Hello, 
 
I have a question about the fot licence. 
Based on the FAQ excerpt below, do I understand correctly that I can't use a font for wordmark that consists only of the company name typed in a font (i.e. consists of unmodified glyphs and has adjusted tracking)? Does the information below also apply to wordmarks?

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.

 
Thank you!

    (you should have included the link to your information source with your question: https://helpx.adobe.com/fonts/using/font-licensing.html#:~:text=you%20may%20produce.-,Can%20I%20use%20the%20fonts%20to%20make%20stencils%2C%20stickers%2C%20jewelry,spell%20out%20your%20own%20phrase.)

     

    The excerpt talks about something completely different. You can't create objects from single characters using Adobe fonts.

     

    But you can use a font to create your company logo or similar. 

     

    Can I use the fonts to create a logo or other images?

    Yes. You can use the fonts in any desktop program (such as Adobe Photoshop) to create images or vector artwork, which you can then use for any purpose. This includes generating a PDF, EPS file, or bitmapped file such as a JPEG or PNG.

    Yes. The logo may be copyrighted or registered as a trademark under the Terms of Use.
