The FreeType 2 font engine is copyrighted work and cannot be used
|
|
legally without a software license. In order to make this project
|
|
usable to a vast majority of developers, we distribute it under two
|
|
mutually exclusive open-source licenses.
|
|
|
|
This means that *you* must choose *one* of the two licenses described
|
|
below, then obey all its terms and conditions when using FreeType 2 in
|
|
any of your projects or products.
|
|
|
|
- The FreeType License, found in the file `FTL.TXT', which is similar
|
|
to the original BSD license *with* an advertising clause that forces
|
|
you to explicitly cite the FreeType project in your product's
|
|
documentation. All details are in the license file. This license
|
|
is suited to products which don't use the GNU General Public
|
|
License.
|
|
|
|
- The GNU General Public License version 2, found in `GPL.TXT' (any
|
|
later version can be used also), for programs which already use the
|
|
GPL. Note that the FTL is incompatible with the GPL due to its
|
|
advertisement clause.
|
|
|
|
The contributed PCF driver comes with a license similar to that of the X
|
|
Window System. It is compatible to the above two licenses (see file
|
|
src/pcf/readme).
