The author considers the set of distribution functions and the subsets of bounded closed intervals where a structure of Menger space is defined in terms of a t-norm \(T\) which is a copula. By means of this it is shown that the associated strong uniformities are induced by the modified Lévy metric introduced by Sybley. Relations with other probabilistic metrics are studied and detailed examples are given.
