2 The FreeType 2 font engine is copyrighted work and cannot be used
3 legally without a software license. In order to make this project
4 usable to a vast majority of developers, we distribute it under two
5 mutually exclusive open-source licenses.
6
7 This means that *you* must choose *one* of the two licenses described
8 below, then obey all its terms and conditions when using FreeType 2 in
9 any of your projects or products.
10
11 - The FreeType License, found in the file `FTL.TXT', which is similar
12 to the original BSD license *with* an advertising clause that forces
13 you to explicitly cite the FreeType project in your product's
14 documentation. All details are in the license file. This license
15 is suited to products which don't use the GNU General Public
16 License.
17
18 - The GNU General Public License version 2, found in `GPL.TXT' (any
19 later version can be used also), for programs which already use the
20 GPL. Note that the FTL is incompatible with the GPL due to its
21 advertisement clause.
22
23 The contributed PCF driver comes with a license similar to that of the X
24 Window System. It is compatible to the above two licenses (see file
25 src/pcf/readme).
