		    The FreeType Project LICENSE

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'll 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've used the FreeType
      code. ("credits" clause)

  We specifically permit  and encourage the use of  this software as
  the basis  of commercial products,  provided that all  warranty or
  liability claims are assumed by the product vendor.



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  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.

  The FreeType project is copyright  (C) 1996, 1997 by David Turner,
  Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg.  All rights reserved except as
  specified below.


1. No Warranty:

  THE FREETYPE ARCHIVE  IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT  WARRANTY OF ANY
  KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED 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.

  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.


2. Redistribution:

  Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without

      to   the  original   files  must   be  clearly   indicated  in

    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 and/or other
      materials.   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 code, not just  the unmodified files.  If you use our
  work, you must acknowledge us.
