It looks like .dct files do not contain information indicating which fonts were in use when the file was written. So, I decided to pop up a dialog that explains this and asks for indications of which fonts and sizes you want applied during import. Let me know if the instructions on the dialog are not clear.

I'm considering adding this feature to the next release and I'd like to do some more testing. It would help if someone could send me their complex .dct files. (Once it works I'd be happy to send the converted file back to you in .pxp or .rtf format.)

Publishers may of course try to claim copyright on a particular new edition of an old text - especially if they have added things like a table of contents or index on which parts they can claim copyright - or where they have published a work in an entirely new format.

Interestingly if you publish an electronic version of a text embedding the Tibetan Machine font (or any part of it) - or embedding any other font which has been released under the terms of the plain GNU General Public Licence (GPL) - then you cannot enforce a restricted copyright since under the terms of that licence any work embedding that font automatically becomes GPL'd as well.

You can find a reference to this issue at: http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/index_html#Fonts - and other places on the FSF site.
The GNU GPL can be used for fonts. However, note that it does not permit embedding the font in a document unless that document is also licensed under the GPL.
Elsewhere someone has remarked:
Simply stated, it appears that using GPL-licensed fonts in a document makes your document subject to the GPL.
- though I think that may be overstating the case where the fonts are not embedded.

To get round this, FSF have introduced an exception clause which can be included in GPL licences for fonts: http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/g ... tException - but of course one can't retroactively apply this clause to fonts which have already been released under the GPL without that clause.

I guess the original developer could release an entirely new version of the font with new glyphs or features and then apply the GPL licence with this clause added - but this new version might also have to be derived from something other than the the previously plain GPL'd version.

Anyway it seems that if TibetDoc or PDF files have the GPL'd Tibetan Machine, or Tibetan Machine Web font embedded in them then those files are in effect automatically public domain under the terms of the GPL.

also see:
Unintended Consequences of Using GPL Fonts - and scroll down that page to see the discussion.

Personally I don't see this as a bad thing - after all no one formerly claimed anything like "copyright" on texts in Tibet.

Can you just open the TibDoc file with TibDoc and then save it as a RTF file? Is there something in the TibDoc format that is lost when saving as RTF? In other words, is there something other than just the text characters that you are trying to get from the TibDoc file?

It is possible that THDL.org has some public code to read a TibDoc file. If anyone knows of this, please post a note.
