unmodified library. If you use our work, you

ought to acknowledge us.

Permission is NOT granted for the use of any IJG

author's name or company name in advertising

or publicity relating to this software or products

derived from it. This software may be referred

to only as "the Independent JPEG Group's

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.

ansi2knr.c is included in this distribution by per-

mission of L. Peter Deutsch, sole proprietor of

its copyright holder, Aladdin Enterprises of Men-

lo Park, CA. ansi2knr.c is NOT covered by the

above copyright and conditions, but instead

by the usual distribution terms of the Free Soft-

ware Foundation; principally,that you must in-

clude source code if you redistribute it. (See the

file ansi2knr.c for full details.) However, since

ansi2knr.c is not needed as part of any program

generated from the IJG code, this does not limit

you more than the foregoing paragraphs do.

The Unix configuration script "configure" was

produced with GNU Autoconf.

It is copyright by the Free Software Foundation

but is freely distributable.

The same holds for its supporting scripts (con-

fig.guess, config.sub,ltconfig, ltmain.sh). An-

other support script, install-sh, is copyright

by M.I.T. but is also freely distributable.

It appears that the arithmetic coding option of

the JPEG spec is covered by patents owned by

IBM, AT&T, and Mitsubishi. Hence arithmetic

coding cannot legally be used without obtaining

one or more licenses. For this reason,support

for arithmetic coding has been removed from

the free JPEG software.

(Since arithmetic coding provides only a mar-

ginal gain over the unpatented Huffman mode,

it is unlikely that very many implementations

will support it.)

So far as we are aware, there are no patent

restrictions on the remaining code.

The IJG distribution formerly included code to

read and write GIF files.

To avoid entanglement with the Unisys LZW

patent, GIF reading support has

been removed altogether, and the GIF writer

has been simplified to produce

uncompressed GIFs. This technique does not

use the LZW algorithm; the

resulting GIF files are larger than usual, but are

readable by all standard

GIF decoders.

We are required to state that "The Graphics

Interchange Format(c) is the Copyright prop-

erty of CompuServe Incorporated. GIF(sm) is

a Service Mark property of CompuServe Incor-

porated."

PREAMBLE

The goals of the Open Font License (OFL) are to

stimulate worldwide development of collabora-

tive font projects, to support the font creation

efforts of academic and linguistic communities,

and to provide a free and open framework in

partnership with others.

The OFL allows the licensed fonts to be used,

studied, modified and redistributed freely as

long as they are not sold by themselves. The

fonts, including any derivative works, can be

bundled, embedded, redistributed and/or sold

with any software provided that any reserved

names are not used by derivative works. The

fonts and derivatives,however, cannot be re-

leased under any other type of license. The

requirement for fonts to remain under this li-

cense does not apply to any document created

using the fonts or their derivatives.
