Definitions

This agreement defines the licensing terms for the software product called
PDFlib Lite 7.0.5. This product will be referred to as "the program" in this agreement.

The program is a copyrighted work whose copyright is held by the licensor.

The program is delivered with a digital manual which describes its programming
features and their usage ("the documentation").

"Programming samples" shall mean the sample code which demonstrates use of the
program, and which is part of the distribution.

"Original distribution" shall mean the set of all files comprising the source code
package for the program as made available by licensor.

The term "integrated product" shall be used in this agreement to designate any
product that is made up of both the program and software or hardware developed or
marketed by any other individual or organization. Integrated product shall mean
all components which are required to make reasonable use of the aggregate software,
even if such components are not directly attached to the program. For
example, if integrated product is a virtual printer driver integrated product
means the complete operating system; if integrated product is a word processor
integrated product means the full word processor plus auxiliary components; if
integrated product is a Web application integrated product means all
components for retrieving, processing, and presenting data. (This is not an
exhaustive enumeration.)

By using, modifying or distributing the program (or any work based on the program),
you indicate your acceptance of this license to do so, and all its terms and
conditions for using, copying, distributing or modifying the program or works based
on it. Nothing other than this license grants you permission to use, modify or
distribute the program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by
law. If you do not accept these terms and conditions, do not use, modify or dist
ribute the program.

Using the Program

Functional use (running) of the program requires a commercial license which is o
utside the scope of
this agreement. However, exempt users listed below are granted a world-wide, roy
alty-free, nonexclusive license to use the program.
2.1 Open Source Developer Exemption
Use of the program as part of an integrated product is exempt from commercial li
censing provided the
integrated product is available under a license which has been approved by the O
pen Source Initiative
OSI (www.opensource.org), complete source code for the integrated product is ava
ilable to anyone
free of charge, and the availability of source code is announced on a publicly a
ccessible Web site.
Source code means the preferred machine-readable form in which a programmer woul
d modify the
software.
2.2 Private non-Profit User Exemption
Non-profit uses of the program by a private individual are exempt from commercia
l licensing. Forprofit use by individuals and non-profit use by organizations do
 not fall under this exemption.
2.3 Educational and Research Exemption
Use of the program by educational institutions and individuals for educational a
nd research purposes
is exempt from commercial licensing. Other uses (e.g., administrative) by educat
ional institutions do
not fall under this exemption.

Redistribution

Redistribution in binary or source form by a commercial organization to any thir
d party are permitted
provided that all of the following conditions are met. Redistributing the progra
m under these conditions does not necessarily give the recipient the right to us
e the program; using the program is always
subject to the conditions in section 2.
3.1
Modifications
If you have modified the program, you must include prominent notices in stating
that you have modified the program's files, your name, your e-mail address (if an
y) and the date and purpose of any
change.
PDF files generated with the program must include the same Producer entry in the
 document info
field as those generated with the original (unmodified) program. Changing the Pr
oducer entry renders
this license invalid.
3.2 Source Code Redistribution
Redistributions of source code must include all files which are part of the orig
inal distribution. Omitting one or more files would result in a distribution whi
ch is not compliant with this license.
3.3 Binary Redistribution
Redistributions in binary (compiled) form must include this license, the documen
tation, and programming samples. Not all programming samples must be included, b
ut only the samples for programming languages which are actually supported by th
e binary distribution. As an alternative to including
the documentation in a binary distribution, the documentation may also be made a
vailable separately
for free download on the Internet in unmodified form. This "download" exception do
es not apply to
other files which are part of the original distribution.

Reservation of Rights

ay not use, copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the program except as expres

 is with you. Should the program prove defective, you assume the
cost of all necessary servicing, repair or correction.
In no event unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing will licen
sor, or any other party
who may modify and/or redistribute the program as permitted above, be liable to
you for damages, including any general, special, incidental or consequential dam
