  • Font protection management
    Patent number: 9471755
    Abstract: Font protection management is described. In one or more implementations, a font package is obtained for an application and includes fonts that are protected by obfuscation. When the application is launched, a request to determine whether use of the protected fonts is authorized in connection with the application may be communicated to a font protection service. A response that is indicative of authorization to use the protected fonts in connection with the application may be received from the font protection service. When the response indicates that use of the protected fonts is authorized, the protected fonts may be de-obfuscated and subsequently used in connection with the application. When the response indicates that use of the protected fonts is not authorized in connection with the application, however, default fonts may be used with the application instead.
