The FreeType 2 font engine is copyrighted work and cannot be used
|
|
|
3 |
legally without a software license. In order to make this project
|
|
|
4 |
usable to a vast majority of developers, we distribute it under two
|
|
|
5 |
mutually exclusive open-source licenses.
|
|
|
6 |
|
|
|
7 |
This means that *you* must choose *one* of the two licenses described
|
|
|
8 |
below, then obey all its terms and conditions when using FreeType 2 in
|
|
|
9 |
any of your projects or products.
|
|
|
10 |
|
|
|
11 |
- The FreeType License, found in the file `FTL.TXT', which is similar
|
|
|
12 |
to the original BSD license *with* an advertising clause that forces
|
|
|
13 |
you to explicitly cite the FreeType project in your product's
|
|
|
14 |
documentation. All details are in the license file. This license
|
|
|
15 |
is suited to products which don't use the GNU General Public
|
|
|
16 |
License.
|
|
|
17 |
|
|
|
18 |
- The GNU General Public License version 2, found in `GPL.TXT' (any
|
|
|
19 |
later version can be used also), for programs which already use the
|
|
|
20 |
GPL. Note that the FTL is incompatible with the GPL due to its
|
|
|
21 |
advertisement clause.
|
|
|
22 |
|
|
|
23 |
The contributed BDF and PCF drivers come with a license similar to that
|
|
|
24 |
of the X Window System. It is compatible to the above two licenses (see
|
|
|
25 |
file src/bdf/README and src/pcf/README).
|
|
|
26 |
|
|
|
27 |
The gzip module uses the zlib license (see src/gzip/zlib.h) which too is
|
|
|
28 |
compatible to the above two licenses.
