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 dual licenses.

What this means is that *you* must choose *one* license among those
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
an BSD-style open-source license *with* an advertising
|
|
|
|
clause that forces you to explicitely cite the
|
|
|
|
FreeType project in your product's documentation. All
|
|
|
|
details are in the license file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The GNU General Public License, found in "GPL.TXT", which is
|
|
|
|
the traditionnal and "viral" GPL license, that
|
|
|
|
forces you to redistribute the _complete_ sources of all
|
|
|
|
your products that simply use FreeType 2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the contributed PCF driver comes with a license similar to
|
|
|
|
that of X Window System which is compatible to the above two
|
|
|
|
licenses (see file src/pcf/readme).
