The FreeType Project is distributed in several archive pack-

ages;

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 inclu-

sion and use of free software in commercial and freeware

products alike. As a consequence, its main points are that:

We don't promise that this software works. However, we will

be interested in any kind of bug reports. (`as is' distribution)

You can use this software for whatever you want, in parts or

full form, without having to pay us. (`royalty-free' usage)

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 prod-

ucts. We disclaim all warranties covering The FreeType Proj-

ect 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:

"""

Please replace with the value from the FreeType

version you actually use.

Legal Terms

===========

0. Definitions

Throughout this license, the terms `package', `FreeType Proj-

ect', 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.

Turner,

specified below.

3. Advertising

Neither the FreeType authors and contributors nor you shall
