To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries

alternatively, under the terms of the ordinary General Public License).
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to
most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the “copyright” line and a pointer to
where the full notice is found.

The FreeType Project LICENSE
2006-Jan-27
Copyright 1996-2002, 2006 by David Turner, Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg
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. The FreeType Project is copyright © 1996-2000 by David Turner, Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg. All
rights reserved except as specified below.
1.
No Warranty: THE FREETYPE PROJECT IS PROVIDED ‘AS IS’ WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT WILL ANY OF THE AUTHORS OR
COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO
USE, OF THE FREETYPE PROJECT.
2.
Redistribution: This license grants a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual and irrevocable right and license to use,
execute, perform, compile, display, copy, create derivative works of, distribute and sublicense the FreeType
Project (in both source and object code forms) and derivative works thereof for any purpose; and to authorize
others to exercise some or all of the rights granted herein, subject to the following conditions: o Redistribution of
source code must retain this license file (‘FTL.TXT’) unaltered; any additions, deletions or changes to the original
files must be clearly indicated in accompanying documentation. The copyright notices of the unaltered, original
files must be preserved in all copies of source files. o Redistribution in binary form must provide a disclaimer that
states that the software is based in part of the work of the FreeType Team, in the distribution documentation. We
also encourage you to put an URL to the FreeType web page in your documentation, though this isn’t mandatory.
These conditions apply to any software derived from or based on the FreeType Project, not just the unmodified
files. If you use our work, you must acknowledge us. However, no fee need be paid to us.
3.
Advertising: Neither the FreeType authors and contributors nor you shall use the name of the other for
commercial, advertising, or promotional purposes without specific prior written permission. We suggest, but do
not require, that you use one or more of the following phrases to refer to this software in your documentation or
advertising materials: ‘FreeType Project’, ‘FreeType Engine’, ‘FreeType library’, or ‘FreeType Distribution’. As you
have not signed this license, you are not required to accept it. However, as the FreeType Project is copyrighted
material, only this license, or another one contracted with the authors, grants you the right to use, distribute, and
modify it. Therefore, by using, distributing, or modifying the FreeType Project, you indicate that you understand
and accept all the terms of this license.
4.
Contacts: There are two mailing lists related to FreeType: o [email protected]
Discusses general use and applications of FreeType, as well as future and wanted additions to the library
and distribution. If you are looking for support, start in this list if you haven’t found anything to help you in the
documentation. o [email protected] Discusses bugs, as well as engine internals, design issues,
specific licenses, porting, etc. Our home page can be found at http://www.freetype.org
