### Third party fonts:
|
|
|
|
This library may include third party font files released with different licenses.
|
|
|
|
All the PHP files on the fonts directory are subject to the general TCPDF license (GNU-LGPLv3),
|
|
they do not contain any binary data but just a description of the general properties of a particular font.
|
|
These files can be also generated on the fly using the font utilities and TCPDF methods.
|
|
|
|
All the original binary TTF font files have been renamed for compatibility with TCPDF and compressed using the gzcompress PHP function that uses the ZLIB data format (.z files).
|
|
|
|
The binary files (.z) that begins with the prefix "free" have been extracted from the GNU FreeFont collection (GNU-GPLv3).
|
|
The binary files (.z) that begins with the prefix "pdfa" have been derived from the GNU FreeFont, so they are subject to the same license.
|
|
For the details of Copyright, License and other information, please check the files inside the directory fonts/freefont-20120503
|
|
Link : http://www.gnu.org/software/freefont/
|
|
|
|
The binary files (.z) that begins with the prefix "dejavu" have been extracted from the DejaVu fonts 2.33 (Bitstream) collection.
|
|
For the details of Copyright, License and other information, please check the files inside the directory fonts/dejavu-fonts-ttf-2.33
|
|

|
|
|
The binary files (.z) that begins with the prefix "ae" have been extracted from the Arabeyes.org collection (GNU-GPLv2).
