The FreeType Project LICENSE ---------------------------- Copyright 1996,1997 by David Turner, Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg 0. Throughout this license, the terms "FreeType project", "FreeType engine", "FreeType library" 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 archive, 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. 1.

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. 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 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. 2. This release of the FreeType archive is placed under the Library GNU Public License (LGPL). A copy of the LGPL should be found in the documentation directory under the name 'COPYING'. However, in order to spread FreeType on as many platforms as possible, a different license exists for freeware and commercial developers who do not wish to use the LGPL-ed release of FreeType. This license can be obtained by contacting the authors. But please note that we do not encourage you to use FreeType in your products before its final release.
