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 licenses.

This means that *you* must choose *one* license of the two 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.

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).
