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).
