Attempting to open a page with a directory of fonts, a user sees a message that access is denied
According to the Vedomosti newspaper, citing a source in the Russian IT-company, the owner of the rights to fonts Times New Roman, Arial, Verdana, Tahoma and Helvetica, the American company Monotype has closed the access to its library on the website for Russian users.
It is noted that the Monotype website in Russia is accessible, but when trying to open the page with the catalog of fonts, the user sees a message about the ban on access. If a VPN service is used, the page is opened and the user gains access to the fonts when registering on the platform.
It became known on April 11 that the Monotype font library was not available to users in Russia. Vedomosti’s source noted that access could have been closed earlier, but his company had not received any official notifications about it.
Microsoft announced in early March that it was ceasing to sell its products and provide services in the Russian market. The president of the company specified that the decision to temporarily discontinue the corporation’s work in the region was made because of the situation in Ukraine.
At the end of the month, Microsoft executives confirmed that the company was not going to completely withdraw from Russia, despite calls from the Ukrainian authorities.
