Copyright is a very surreal mine field where even the minutest detail counts. Usually I watch the end credits of games to see what they all had to license.
When you then see “Helvetica font, licensed by Linotype”, you realize, wow, even “standard fonts” (that ship with Windows) need licensing.
The tricky details then become appearent when you hear a story about a studio being sued because they licensed the font for international use on PC and game consoles… but not for handheld devices in china and released a gameboy port there…
