     1                     The FreeType Project LICENSE
     2                     ----------------------------
     4                             2006-Jan-27
     6                     Copyright 1996-2002, 2006 by
     7           David Turner, Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg
    11 Introduction
    12 ============
    14   The FreeType  Project is distributed in  several archive packages;
    15   some of them may contain, in addition to the FreeType font engine,
    16   various tools and  contributions which rely on, or  relate to, the
    17   FreeType Project.
    19   This  license applies  to all  files found  in such  packages, and
    20   which do not  fall under their own explicit  license.  The license
    21   affects  thus  the  FreeType   font  engine,  the  test  programs,
    22   documentation and makefiles, at the very least.
    24   This  license   was  inspired  by  the  BSD,   Artistic,  and  IJG
    25   (Independent JPEG  Group) licenses, which  all encourage inclusion
    26   and  use of  free  software in  commercial  and freeware  products
    27   alike.  As a consequence, its main points are that:
    29     o We don't promise that this software works. However, we will be
    30       interested in any kind of bug reports. (`as is' distribution)
    32     o You can  use this software for whatever you  want, in parts or
    33       full form, without having to pay us. (`royalty-free' usage)
    35     o You may not pretend that  you wrote this software.  If you use
    36       it, or  only parts of it,  in a program,  you must acknowledge
    37       somewhere  in  your  documentation  that  you  have  used  the
    38       FreeType code. (`credits')
    40   We  specifically  permit  and  encourage  the  inclusion  of  this
    41   software, with  or without modifications,  in commercial products.
    42   We  disclaim  all warranties  covering  The  FreeType Project  and
    43   assume no liability related to The FreeType Project.
    46   Finally,  many  people  asked  us  for  a  preferred  form  for  a
    47   credit/disclaimer to use in compliance with this license.  We thus
    48   encourage you to use the following text:
    50    """
    51     Portions of this software are copyright © <year> The FreeType
    52     Project (www.freetype.org).  All rights reserved.
    53    """
    55   Please replace <year> with the value from the FreeType version you
    56   actually use.
    59 Legal Terms
    60 ===========
    62 0. Definitions
    63 --------------
    65   Throughout this license,  the terms `package', `FreeType Project',
    66   and  `FreeType  archive' refer  to  the  set  of files  originally
    67   distributed  by the  authors  (David Turner,  Robert Wilhelm,  and
    68   Werner Lemberg) as the `FreeType Project', be they named as alpha,
    69   beta or final release.
    71   `You' refers to  the licensee, or person using  the project, where
    72   `using' is a generic term including compiling the project's source
    73   code as  well as linking it  to form a  `program' or `executable'.
    74   This  program is  referred to  as  `a program  using the  FreeType
    75   engine'.
    77   This  license applies  to all  files distributed  in  the original
    78   FreeType  Project,   including  all  source   code,  binaries  and
    79   documentation,  unless  otherwise  stated   in  the  file  in  its
    80   original, unmodified form as  distributed in the original archive.
    81   If you are  unsure whether or not a particular  file is covered by
    82   this license, you must contact us to verify this.
    84   The FreeType  Project is copyright (C) 1996-2000  by David Turner,
    85   Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg.  All rights reserved except as
    86   specified below.
    88 1. No Warranty
    89 --------------
    91   THE FREETYPE PROJECT  IS PROVIDED `AS IS' WITHOUT  WARRANTY OF ANY
    92   KIND, EITHER  EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,  INCLUDING, BUT NOT  LIMITED TO,
    93   WARRANTIES  OF  MERCHANTABILITY   AND  FITNESS  FOR  A  PARTICULAR
    94   PURPOSE.  IN NO EVENT WILL ANY OF THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS
    95   BE LIABLE  FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED  BY THE USE OR  THE INABILITY TO
    96   USE, OF THE FREETYPE PROJECT.
    98 2. Redistribution
    99 -----------------
   101   This  license  grants  a  worldwide, royalty-free,  perpetual  and
   102   irrevocable right  and license to use,  execute, perform, compile,
   103   display,  copy,   create  derivative  works   of,  distribute  and
   104   sublicense the  FreeType Project (in  both source and  object code
   105   forms)  and  derivative works  thereof  for  any  purpose; and  to
   106   authorize others  to exercise  some or all  of the  rights granted
   107   herein, subject to the following conditions:
   109     o Redistribution of  source code  must retain this  license file
   110       (`FTL.TXT') unaltered; any  additions, deletions or changes to
   111       the original  files must be clearly  indicated in accompanying
   112       documentation.   The  copyright   notices  of  the  unaltered,
   113       original  files must  be  preserved in  all  copies of  source
   114       files.
   116     o Redistribution in binary form must provide a  disclaimer  that
   117       states  that  the software is based in part of the work of the
   118       FreeType Team,  in  the  distribution  documentation.  We also
   119       encourage you to put an URL to the FreeType web page  in  your
   120       documentation, though this isn't mandatory.
   122   These conditions  apply to any  software derived from or  based on
   123   the FreeType Project,  not just the unmodified files.   If you use
   124   our work, you  must acknowledge us.  However, no  fee need be paid
   125   to us.
   127 3. Advertising
   128 --------------
   130   Neither the  FreeType authors and  contributors nor you  shall use
   131   the name of the  other for commercial, advertising, or promotional
   132   purposes without specific prior written permission.
   134   We suggest,  but do not require, that  you use one or  more of the
   135   following phrases to refer  to this software in your documentation
   136   or advertising  materials: `FreeType Project',  `FreeType Engine',
   137   `FreeType library', or `FreeType Distribution'.
   139   As  you have  not signed  this license,  you are  not  required to
   140   accept  it.   However,  as  the FreeType  Project  is  copyrighted
   141   material, only  this license, or  another one contracted  with the
   142   authors, grants you  the right to use, distribute,  and modify it.
   143   Therefore,  by  using,  distributing,  or modifying  the  FreeType
   144   Project, you indicate that you understand and accept all the terms
   145   of this license.
   147 4. Contacts
