Set license as 'custom'
and then copy the license file to
/usr/share/licenses/ttf-digital-readout/
dir.

Also yo should add "" around every statement that has pkgdir or srcdir in
it.
This is due to that if user build build this package on a dir, wich name
contains
a space example cp  command can become like
cp /home/cave-johnson/aur builds/../*ttf /home.../aur builds/pkg...
as you see this would copy file /home/cave-johnson/aur
builds/../*ttf and /home/cave-johnson/aur (2nd time XD)
to folder builds/pkg... and that not we want. so add "" so
that the space charter is treated as part of the filename and not as
separator
for arguments.
