Bier und Wein - Free Beer & Wine Dingbats font by Dieter Steffman<br />
=================================================================<br />
<br />
<br />
Offered in TrueType Font Format, "Bier und Wein" offers 26 bier and wein (beer and wine) dingbats. Uppercase and lowercase registers share the same vignettes that can be used as dingbats, icons, avatars, or just simple illustrations. The font can also be used as a web font. This is the initial 2002 release at version 1.0. <br />
<br />
This is a free font (not to be sold) released for public use by Dieter Steffmann. This font (and any extra duplicate versions converted to other font formats) is OK for commercial use, even as a web font (#webfont). Please note however, no derivatives are allowed.<br />
<br />
<br />
A FREE FONT FAMILY<br />
The authoring artist, Dieter Steffmann, has very little restrictions on the use of his free fonts other than to leave it as is (so, personal/commercial/charity work is OK, and you may use it as a #webfont, too). However, this is not a public domain font. Dieter Steffmann maintains his full Copyright worldwide, and therefore this font should not be modified or otherwise used to create a derivative font, and that the fonts should never be sold without his prior authorization to do so. The fonts in this archive (1 version TTF and 1 version in WOFF) are offered 'as is' without any warranty. This has been a quick synopsis on authorized use, more info is given under the DETAILS section, below. <br />
<br />
This font is a well-crafted hand-drawn illustrated vignettes dingbat font and web font (#webfont) covering Duetsche (German) beer and wine elements.<br />

<br />
The original 2009 Beir und Wein font distribution archive found at Font-Journal was updated with this documentation and a new dingbat font vignettes preview image (on or about April 30th, 2022).<br />
<br />
The TrueType (*.ttf) and Web Open Font Format (*.woff) fonts in this archive were originally downloaded from Dieter Steffmann's official archive (resource link credited below).<br />
<br />
This text document has been created specifically for distribution with this font archive as a researched factual document (to the best of my knowledge) intended to protect all parties. Any updates to this font (under this reserved font name) or its distribution archive can be found at the dedicated Font-Journal URL for this distribution archive given above.<br />
<br />
This archive was specifically enhanced with this note as a means to document the great works Dieter Steffmann has contributed to the world. This is done in the hopes that he will always be credited for his wonderful gifts to humanity, as many of his original distribution archives lack any documentation what-so-ever (the license was given on the web page it was downloaded from, but then the license can be lost when a designer has a lot of fonts). Hopefully, it will also serve to help protect his work from modifications and derivatives.<br />
<br />
These fonts have been checked and validated as the most recent known available version (as of April, 2021).<br />
<br />
NOTE: This is free software, provided as-is, flaws or not. If you do have trouble, contact me, let me know the issue, and I will see what I can do, but there is no warranty and the font(s) is provided in the same format that works on mine and many other people's computers.<br />
<br />
Please note also, that Dieter Steffmann has a great many free downloadable typefaces available at Font-Journal. To view all of his fonts that I have added to the font repository so far you can search his name (or use the URL below):<br />

Dieter Steffman<br />
---------------<br />
Is a widely talented, retired typographer living in Duetschland (AKA: Germany). Specifically, he lives in the township of Kreuztal in the Siegerland region of DE (DE is the country code abbreviation for Germany). He started computing on the Amiga (as did I). He currently has some health concerns that he shares on his Wordpress blog. He enjoys web administration, photography and hiking, now. He also posts some great photos. Dieter is also quite active on Twitter and maybe Facebook. Dieter Steffman's business alias is "Typographer Mediengestaltung" and he created hundreds of fonts between 2000-2013 that are now available free.<br />
<br />
Mr. Steffmann created a large volume of free fonts (over 600). I have much to do to include and document each one of his fonts (both the ones I will add and the older ones that have previously been archived before I started documenting each one).<br />
<br />
Perhaps Dieter Steffmann didn't include documentation in his distribution archives since he made them freely available to the public without much restriction on regular use and the license was specified on the download page. But then the license gets separated from the archive and as a designer myself, I like to retain proof that a free font I downloaded is as such (a free font with its conditions of use). It will take me a while, but I will be working to get them all updated with a text sample gif & documentation, eventually. Still, it's going to take a long time, as I administrate Font-Journal as a free online font repository and cataloged font archive only in my spare time, currently without assistance.<br />

Dieter Steffmann's official font archive is at:<br />
http://moorstation.org/typoasis/designers/steffmann/<br />
<br />
Specifically, the download page for the undocumented font archive is:<br />
http://moorstation.org/typoasis/designers/steffmann/samples/b/belwe.htm<br />
<br />
...but as noted, those archives lack the inclusion of documentation and a simple preview gif. As I prefer to keep that the license info, documentation and a preview image are both included with my archives so that as a designer I can always reference this information should I require it (such as when some scammer comes along and pretends the font is theirs and threatens a fake 'Copyright infingement' shake-down law suit simply hoping to scare out some money from the ignorant or disorganized). <br />
<br />
This journaling methodology gives professional graphic designers and marketers an easy way to prove that a typeface is free and OK for commercial use, as well as learn a little of the history about the author, if they want, without too much trouble. All they have to do is keep the original archive somewhere (in case the website goes offline when the Google server monopoly on internet infrastructure dependency takes the world's internet down again). I recommend keeping the archive in a local directory on your computer as well as online with the hosting account directory for any website you use it on as a webfont.<br />
