Subparagraph b is correct; the license prohibits using xnews to
rasterize anything--with or without fonts--if the end result will be
hardcopy.  The fonts are the major sticking point, i.e. the area in
which (I am given to understand) a font vendor could sue directly or
force us to do so; but the prohibition is broader than that.  You may
not use xnews to rasterize for hardcopy, except via NeWSprint.
