I'm not sure about the exact licensing conditions of the LilyPond logo, it will certainly be freely distributable but anyway you will not likely be sued over it. In the context of trademark logos, actually printing the logo usually does not just identify some trademarked entity but also is considered to constitute endorsement and/or an official relation with the trademarking entity. A logo at the top of a page without context almost certainly is considered an official communication by the trademark bearer itself. Which is not really the case here (yet?) so using the logo in a prominent position like that is likely to cause confusion. So while it's not likely to be an actual licensing or trademark problem (I am pretty sure the logo has not been trademarked by anybody), it still might not be the best idea. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
