    Font licensing and copyright lawsuit

    Nicky Laatz sued Zazzle, alleging that fonts obtained under a one-user license were made available to the platform's wider designer and customer community. Zazzle denied the allegations, said it had sought a server license, and argued in court that fonts themselves were not copyrightable under United States law. The final outcome is not established by the supplied material.
