Licensing and Copyright
=======================
THIS IS NOT PUBLIC DOMAIN OR FREEWARE SOFTWARE!
PDFlib is available under two different licensing terms which are
substantially different, and meet the needs of different developer groups.
Please take the time to read the short summaries below in order to decide
which one applies to your development.
The Aladdin Free Public License
-------------------------------
This license applies to the main PDFlib package, but not to the
ActiveX edition and any EBCDIC editions (both of which are only
available under the terms of the commercial PDFlib license). The
complete text of the license agreement can be found in the
file aladdin-license.pdf. In short and non-legal terms:
- You may develop free software with PDFlib, provided you make your source
code available.
- You may develop software for your own use with PDFlib, as long as you
don't sell it.
- You may redistribute PDFlib non-commercially.
- You may redistribute PDFlib on digital media if the complete contents of
the media are freely redistributable.
Only the text in the file doc/aladdin-license.pdf is considered to completely
describe the licensing conditions. Project managers please note: Using PDFlib
in your commercial projects is not covered by the Aladdin license, and
effectively means jeopardizing your project through unlicensed software!
The commercial PDFlib license
-----------------------------
A commercial PDFlib license is required for all uses of the software which
are not explicitly covered by the Aladdin Free Public License, for example:
- shipping a commercial product which contains PDFlib,
- distributing (free or commercial) software based on PDFlib when the source
code is not made available,
- implementing commercial Web services with PDFlib.
Details of the commercial PDFlib license and a purchase order form
can be found in the doc directory. Maintenance and support contracts are
also available.
