15Introduction
16============
17
18 The FreeType Project is distributed in several archive packages;
19 some of them may contain, in addition to the FreeType font engine,
20 various tools and contributions which rely on, or relate to, the
21 FreeType Project.
22
23 This license applies to all files found in such packages, and
24 which do not fall under their own explicit license. The license
25 affects thus the FreeType font engine, the test programs,
26 documentation and makefiles, at the very least.
27
28 This license was inspired by the BSD, Artistic, and IJG
29 (Independent JPEG Group) licenses, which all encourage inclusion
30 and use of free software in commercial and freeware products
31 alike. As a consequence, its main points are that:
32
33 o We don't promise that this software works. However, we will be
34 interested in any kind of bug reports. (`as is' distribution)
35
36 o You can use this software for whatever you want, in parts or
37 full form, without having to pay us. (`royalty-free' usage)
38
39 o You may not pretend that you wrote this software. If you use
40 it, or only parts of it, in a program, you must acknowledge
41 somewhere in your documentation that you have used the
42 FreeType code. (`credits')
43
44 We specifically permit and encourage the inclusion of this
45 software, with or without modifications, in commercial products.
46 We disclaim all warranties covering The FreeType Project and
47 assume no liability related to The FreeType Project.
48
49
50 Finally, many people asked us for a preferred form for a
51 credit/disclaimer to use in compliance with this license. We thus
52 encourage you to use the following text:
53
54 """
55 Portions of this software are copyright © <year> The FreeType
56 Project (www.freetype.org). All rights reserved.
57 """
58
59 Please replace <year> with the value from the FreeType version you
60 actually use.

63Legal Terms
64===========
65
660. Definitions
67--------------
68
69 Throughout this license, the terms `package', `FreeType Project',
70 and `FreeType archive' refer to the set of files originally
71 distributed by the authors (David Turner, Robert Wilhelm, and
72 Werner Lemberg) as the `FreeType Project', be they named as alpha,
73 beta or final release.
74
75 `You' refers to the licensee, or person using the project, where
76 `using' is a generic term including compiling the project's source
77 code as well as linking it to form a `program' or `executable'.
78 This program is referred to as `a program using the FreeType
79 engine'.
80
81 This license applies to all files distributed in the original
82 FreeType Project, including all source code, binaries and
83 documentation, unless otherwise stated in the file in its
84 original, unmodified form as distributed in the original archive.
85 If you are unsure whether or not a particular file is covered by
86 this license, you must contact us to verify this.
87
88 The FreeType Project is copyright (C) 1996-2000 by David Turner,
89 Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg. All rights reserved except as
90 specified below.
91
921. No Warranty
93--------------
94
95 THE FREETYPE PROJECT IS PROVIDED `AS IS' WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
96 KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
97 WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
98 PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT WILL ANY OF THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS
99 BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO
100 USE, OF THE FREETYPE PROJECT.
101
1022. Redistribution
103-----------------
104
105 This license grants a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual and
106 irrevocable right and license to use, execute, perform, compile,
107 display, copy, create derivative works of, distribute and
108 sublicense the FreeType Project (in both source and object code
109 forms) and derivative works thereof for any purpose; and to
110 authorize others to exercise some or all of the rights granted
111 herein, subject to the following conditions:
112
113 o Redistribution of source code must retain this license file
114 (`FTL.TXT') unaltered; any additions, deletions or changes to
115 the original files must be clearly indicated in accompanying
116 documentation. The copyright notices of the unaltered,
117 original files must be preserved in all copies of source
118 files.
119
120 o Redistribution in binary form must provide a disclaimer that
121 states that the software is based in part of the work of the
122 FreeType Team, in the distribution documentation. We also
123 encourage you to put an URL to the FreeType web page in your
124 documentation, though this isn't mandatory.
125
126 These conditions apply to any software derived from or based on
127 the FreeType Project, not just the unmodified files. If you use
128 our work, you must acknowledge us. However, no fee need be paid
129 to us.
130
1313. Advertising
132--------------
133
134 Neither the FreeType authors and contributors nor you shall use
135 the name of the other for commercial, advertising, or promotional
136 purposes without specific prior written permission.
137
138 We suggest, but do not require, that you use one or more of the
139 following phrases to refer to this software in your documentation
140 or advertising materials: `FreeType Project', `FreeType Engine',
141 `FreeType library', or `FreeType Distribution'.
142
143 As you have not signed this license, you are not required to
144 accept it. However, as the FreeType Project is copyrighted
145 material, only this license, or another one contracted with the
146 authors, grants you the right to use, distribute, and modify it.
147 Therefore, by using, distributing, or modifying the FreeType
148 Project, you indicate that you understand and accept all the terms
149 of this license.
