1. Definitions |
| 10 |
This agreement defines the licensing terms for the software product called PDFlib Lite 7.0.1. This prod- |
| 11 |
uct will be referred to as "the program" in this agreement. The program is a copyrighted work whose |
| 12 |
copyright is held by the licensor. |
| 13 |
The program is delivered with a digital manual which describes its programming features and their |
| 14 |
usage ("the documentation"). "Programming samples" shall mean the sample code which demon- |
| 15 |
strates use of the program, and which is part of the distribution. "Original distribution" shall mean |
| 16 |
the set of all files comprising the source code package for the program as made available by licensor. |
| 17 |
The term "integrated product" shall be used in this agreement to designate any product that is made |
| 18 |
up of both the program and software or hardware developed or marketed by any other individual or |
| 19 |
organization. Integrated product shall mean all components which are required to make reasonable |
| 20 |
use of the aggregate software, even if such components are not directly attached to the program. For |
| 21 |
example, if integrated product is a virtual printer driver integrated product means the complete oper- |
| 22 |
ating system; if integrated product is a word processor integrated product means the full word proces- |
| 23 |
sor plus auxiliary components; if integrated product is a Web application integrated product means all |
| 24 |
components for retrieving, processing, and presenting data. (This is not an exhaustive enumeration.) |
| 25 |
By using, modifying or distributing the program (or any work based on the program), you indicate |
| 26 |
your acceptance of this license to do so, and all its terms and conditions for using, copying, distribut- |
| 27 |
ing or modifying the program or works based on it. Nothing other than this license grants you permis- |
| 28 |
sion to use, modify or distribute the program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by |
| 29 |
law. If you do not accept these terms and conditions, do not use, modify or distribute the program. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
2. Using the Program |
| 32 |
Functional use (running) of the program requires a commercial license which is outside the scope of |
| 33 |
this agreement. However, exempt users listed below are granted a world-wide, royalty-free, non- |
| 34 |
exclusive license to use the program. |
| 35 |
2.1 Open Source Developer Exemption |
| 36 |
Use of the program as part of an integrated product is exempt from commercial licensing provided the |
| 37 |
integrated product is available under a license which has been approved by the Open Source Initiative |
| 38 |
OSI (www.opensource.org), complete source code for the integrated product is available to anyone |
| 39 |
free of charge, and the availability of source code is announced on a publicly accessible Web site. |
| 40 |
Source code means the preferred machine-readable form in which a programmer would modify the |
| 41 |
software. |
| 42 |
2.2 Private non-Profit User Exemption |
| 43 |
Non-profit uses of the program by a private individual are exempt from commercial licensing. For- |
| 44 |
profit use by individuals and non-profit use by organizations do not fall under this exemption. |
| 45 |
2.3 Educational and Research Exemption |
| 46 |
Use of the program by educational institutions and individuals for educational and research purposes |
| 47 |
is exempt from commercial licensing. Other uses (e.g., administrative) by educational institutions do |
| 48 |
not fall under this exemption. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
3. Redistribution |
| 51 |
Redistribution in binary or source form by a commercial organization to any third party are permitted |
| 52 |
provided that all of the following conditions are met. Redistributing the program under these condi- |
| 53 |
tions does not necessarily give the recipient the right to use the program; using the program is always |
| 54 |
subject to the conditions in section 2. |
| 55 |
3.1 Modifications |
| 56 |
If you have modified the program, you must include prominent notices in stating that you have modi- |
| 57 |
fied the programÕs files, your name, your e-mail address (if any) and the date and purpose of any |
| 58 |
change. |
| 59 |
PDF files generated with the program must include the same Producer entry in the document info |
| 60 |
field as those generated with the original (unmodified) program. Changing the Producer entry renders |
| 61 |
this license invalid. |
| 62 |
3.2 Source Code Redistribution |
| 63 |
Redistributions of source code must include all files which are part of the original distribution. Omit- |
| 64 |
ting one or more files would result in a distribution which is not compliant with this license. |
| 65 |
3.3 Binary Redistribution |
| 66 |
Redistributions in binary (compiled) form must include this license, the documentation, and program- |
| 67 |
ming samples. Not all programming samples must be included, but only the samples for program- |
| 68 |
ming languages which are actually supported by the binary distribution. As an alternative to including |
| 69 |
the documentation in a binary distribution, the documentation may also be made available separately |
| 70 |
for free download on the Internet in unmodified form. This ÈdownloadÇ exception does not apply to |
| 71 |
other files which are part of the original distribution. |
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
4. Reservation of Rights |
| 74 |
No rights are granted to the program except as expressly set forth herein. You may not use, copy, mod- |
| 75 |
ify, sublicense, or distribute the program except as expressly provided under this license. Any attempt |
| 76 |
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the program is void, and will automatically termi- |
| 77 |
nate your rights under this license. |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
5. Warranty |
| 80 |
The program is provided to you Èas isÇ, without warranty. There is no warranty for the program, either |
| 81 |
expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability and fit- |
| 82 |
ness for a particular purpose and non-infringement of third party rights. The entire risk as to the qual- |
| 83 |
ity and performance of the program is with you. Should the program prove defective, you assume the |
| 84 |
cost of all necessary servicing, repair or correction. |
| 85 |
In no event unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing will licensor, or any other party |
| 86 |
who may modify and/or redistribute the program as permitted above, be liable to you for damages, in- |
| 87 |
cluding any general, special, incidental or consequential damages arising out of the use or inability to |
| 88 |
use the program (including but not limited to loss of data or data being rendered inaccurate or losses |
| 89 |
sustained by you or third parties or a failure of the program to operate with any other programs), even |
| 90 |
if such holder or other party has been advised of the possibility of such damages. |
| 91 |
|
| 92 |
6. General |
| 93 |
This license is governed by the laws of Germany, excluding choice of law rules. If any part of this li- |
| 94 |
cense is found to be in conflict with the law, that part shall be interpreted in its broadest meaning con- |
| 95 |
sistent with the law, and no other parts of the license shall be affected. |
