Hello, This is SeungHyun Lee from Korea. 
I wanted to ask you guys some questions on the Noto Sans & Noto Sans CJK Font License 

Currently, I am working on the project which is to develop and implement global banking system for overseas branch.
And, we are planning to use Noto Sans or Noto Sans CJK Font in the documents that are printed out from the banking system (such as applications, customer notification and so forth)

Before I actually apply the noto fonts, I just checked the 'SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1.

SIL Open Font License states that 
The OFL allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and redistributed freely as long as they are not sold by themselves. The fonts, including any derivative works, can be bundled, embedded, redistributed and/or sold with any software provided that any reserved names are not used by derivative works. The fonts and derivatives, however, cannot be released under any other type of license. The requirement for fonts to remain under this license does not apply to any document created using the fonts or their derivatives.

As I understood, Noto fonts are free to use as long as they are not sold by THEMSELVES. and i just wanted to double check with this. 
And can you guys please let me know if there will be any license issue when i use Noto Fonts in our product (global banking system) as the font on electronic documents.

Thank you very much, and I will look forward to your reply. 

Thank you.
Have a great day
