Permissions – Requirements for Using FKB Files And Books

I get a fairly large number of emails from people asking about using FKB Files And Books on this site. I’d love to tell people they can use the books, especially for charities/non-profits, and wish I could, but unfortunately using FKB files and books it’s not that simple.
