Introduction
The FreeType Project is distributed in several
archive packages; some of them may contain, in
addition to the FreeType font engine, various tools
and contributions which rely on, or relate to, the
FreeType Project. This license applies to all files
found in such packages, and which do not fall
under their own explicit license. The license
affects thus the FreeType font engine, the test
programs, documentation and makefiles, at the
very least. This license was inspired by the BSD,
Artistic, and IJG (Independent JPEG Group)
licenses, which all encourage inclusion and use of
free software in commercial and freeware
products alike. As a consequence, its main points
are that: o We don't promise that this software
works. However, we will be interested in any kind
of bug reports. (`as is' distribution) o You can use
this software for whatever you want, in parts or full
form, without having to pay us. (`royalty-free'
usage) o You may not pretend that you wrote this
software. If you use it, or only parts of it, in a
program, you must acknowledge somewhere in
your documentation that you have used the
FreeType code. (`credits') We specifically permit
and encourage the inclusion of this software, with
or without modifications, in commercial products.
We disclaim all warranties covering The FreeType
Project and assume no liability related to The
FreeType Project. Finally, many people asked us
for a preferred form for a credit/disclaimer to use
in compliance with this license. We thus
encourage you to use the following text:
"Portions of this software are copyright © <year>
The FreeType Project (www.freetype.org). All
rights reserved."
Please replace <year> with the value from the
FreeType version you actually use.
Legal Terms
0. Definitions – Throughout this license, the terms
`package', `FreeType Project', and `FreeType
archive' refer to the set of files originally
distributed by the authors (David Turner, Robert
Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg) as the `FreeType
Project', be they named as alpha, beta or final
release. `You' refers to the licensee, or person
using the project, where `using' is a generic term
including compiling the project's source code as
well as linking it to form a `program' or
`executable'. This program is referred to as `a
program using the FreeType engine'. This license
applies to all files distributed in the original
FreeType Project, including all source code,
binaries and documentation, unless otherwise
stated in the file in its original, unmodified form as
distributed in the original archive. If you are
unsure whether or not a particular file is covered
by this license, you must contact us to verify this.
