gSOAP is distributed under a choice of:

* The gSOAP Public License 1.3 (which is based on the Mozilla public license
1.1). Components not covered by the gSOAP Public License are wsdl2h and its
source code output, UDDI, and several sample applications, see note below.

* OR GPL (GNU Public License, a common open-source software license).

* OR a proprietary software development site license.

Pick the license that applies best for your intended use. The software is
offered under GPL conditions to enable the software to be used with open source
GPL projects, educational use, and so on. We do not accept third-party GPL
contributions to avoid having to fork the code base in GPL and non-GPL.

Parts of this program are released under the GPL with the additional exemption
that compiling, linking, and/or using OpenSSL is allowed.

IMPORTANT NOTE: the wsdl2h parser, UDDI code, and sample applications such as
the stand-alone web server are distributed ONLY under the GPL or the
proprietary license. This means that commercial use of wsdl2h to generate code
for product development, or the use of the UDDI source code, or the use of code
from the sample Web service applications requires the proprietary software
development license. The reason for this is that the wsdl2h tool, UDDI and some
of the sample applications are not developed at Florida State University.
Please contact me by email if you have any questions on licensing and software
support: engelen@genivia.com

The parts of the code that are distributed under the GPL or Genivia's
commercial license are:

* The wsdl2h WSDL parser source code and the code generated by it.
* The UDDI source code.
* The examples included in the gSOAP distribution package 'samples' directory.

The OpenSSL toolkit stays under a double license, i.e. both the conditions of
the OpenSSL License and the original SSLeay license apply to the toolkit.
See below for the actual license texts. Actually both licenses are BSD-style
Open Source licenses. In case of any license issues related to OpenSSL

The README of the PCRE sources says, that the default maximum compiled pattern size is around 64K. What ever 'around' means here, our experience is that strings larger than about 1000 characters lead to InDesign® crashes (Whatever 'about' means here ). The bad thing is that the crashes do not happen immediately but only after some calls to PCRE. And to find the cause of the accident, you can easily search for a few days. Therefor our recommendation is :

Do never search for patterns longer than approximately 500 characters.

Independent implementation of MD5 (RFC 1321).

This code implements the MD5 Algorithm defined in RFC 1321, whose
text is available at
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1321.txt
The code is derived from the text of the RFC, including the test suite
(section A.5) but excluding the rest of Appendix A. It does not include
any code or documentation that is identified in the RFC as being
copyrighted.

The original and principal author of md5.c is L. Peter Deutsch
<ghost@aladdin.com>. Other authors are noted in the change history
that follows (in reverse chronological order):

2002-04-13 lpd Clarified derivation from RFC 1321; now handles byte order
either statically or dynamically; added missing #include <string.h>
in library.
2002-03-11 lpd Corrected argument list for main(), and added int return
type, in test program and T value program.
2002-02-21 lpd Added missing #include <stdio.h> in test program.
2000-07-03 lpd Patched to eliminate warnings about "constant is
unsigned in ANSI C, signed in traditional"; made test program
self-checking.
1999-11-04 lpd Edited comments slightly for automatic TOC extraction.
1999-10-18 lpd Fixed typo in header comment (ansi2knr rather than md5).
1999-05-03 lpd Original version.

We welcome the use of this software as a component of commercial products.
No royalty is required, but we do ask for an acknowledgement in product
documentation, as described under LEGAL ISSUES.

LEGAL ISSUES
============

In plain English:

1. We don't promise that this software works. (But if you find any bugs,
please let us know!)
2. You can use this software for whatever you want. You don't have to pay us.
3. You may not pretend that you wrote this software. If you use it in a
program, you must acknowledge somewhere in your documentation that
you've used the IJG code.

In legalese:

The authors make NO WARRANTY or representation, either express or implied,
with respect to this software, its quality, accuracy, merchantability, or
fitness for a particular purpose. This software is provided "AS IS", and you,
its user, assume the entire risk as to its quality and accuracy.

Permission is hereby granted to use, copy, modify, and distribute this
software (or portions thereof) for any purpose, without fee, subject to these
conditions:
(1) If any part of the source code for this software is distributed, then this
README file must be included, with this copyright and no-warranty notice
unaltered; and any additions, deletions, or changes to the original files
must be clearly indicated in accompanying documentation.
(2) If only executable code is distributed, then the accompanying
documentation must state that "this software is based in part on the work of
the Independent JPEG Group".
(3) Permission for use of this software is granted only if the user accepts
full responsibility for any undesirable consequences; the authors accept
NO LIABILITY for damages of any kind.

These conditions apply to any software derived from or based on the IJG code,
not just to the 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
software".

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.

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 (config.guess, config.sub,
ltmain.sh). Another support script, install-sh, is copyright by X Consortium
but is also freely distributable.

The IJG distribution formerly included code to read and write GIF files.
To avoid entanglement with the Unisys LZW patent (now expired), 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 property of
CompuServe Incorporated. GIF(sm) is a Service Mark property of
CompuServe Incorporated."

pugixml is a light-weight C++ XML processing library written by Arseny Kapoulkine. It consists of a DOM-like interface with rich traversal/modification capabilities, an extremely fast XML parser which constructs the DOM tree from an XML file/buffer, and an XPath 1.0 implementation for complex data-driven tree queries.

We use pugixml to calculate XPATH queries in placeholder scripts and cScript (xmlquery).

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

[This is the first released version of the library GPL. It is
numbered 2 because it goes with version 2 of the ordinary GPL.]

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.

This license, the Library General Public License, applies to some
specially designated Free Software Foundation software, and to any
other libraries whose authors decide to use it. You can use it for
your libraries, too.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if
you distribute copies of the library, or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
code. If you link a program with the library, you must provide
complete object files to the recipients so that they can relink them
with the library, after making changes to the library and recompiling
it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (1) copyright
the library, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.

Also, for each distributor's protection, we want to make certain
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
library. If the library is modified by someone else and passed on, we
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original
version, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on
the original authors' reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing free
software will individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect
transforming the program into proprietary software. To prevent this,
we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's
free use or not licensed at all.

Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary
GNU General Public License, which was designed for utility programs. This
license, the GNU Library General Public License, applies to certain
designated libraries. This license is quite different from the ordinary
one; be sure to read it in full, and don't assume that anything in it is
the same as in the ordinary license.

The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is that
they blur the distinction we usually make between modifying or adding to a
program and simply using it. Linking a program with a library, without
changing the library, is in some sense simply using the library, and is
analogous to running a utility program or application program. However, in
a textual and legal sense, the linked executable is a combined work, a
derivative of the original library, and the ordinary General Public License
treats it as such.

Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General
Public License for libraries did not effectively promote software
sharing, because most developers did not use the libraries. We
concluded that weaker conditions might promote sharing better.

However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive the
users of those programs of all benefit from the free status of the
libraries themselves. This Library General Public License is intended to
permit developers of non-free programs to use free libraries, while
preserving your freedom as a user of such programs to change the free
libraries that are incorporated in them. (We have not seen how to achieve
this as regards changes in header files, but we have achieved it as regards
changes in the actual functions of the Library.) The hope is that this
will lead to faster development of free libraries.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
former contains code derived from the library, while the latter only
works together with the library.

Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary
General Public License rather than by this special one.

GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License Agreement applies to any software library which
contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized
party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Library
General Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is
addressed as "you".

A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.

The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
included without limitation in the term "modification".)

"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
and installation of the library.

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
and what the program that uses the Library does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
Library.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) The modified work must itself be a software library.

b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
in the event an application does not supply such function or
table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
its purpose remains meaningful.

(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
application-supplied function or table used by this function must
be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
root function must still compute square roots.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
collective works based on the Library.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
the scope of this License.

3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
these notices.

Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.

This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
the Library into a program that is not a library.

4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
medium customarily used for software interchange.

If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
therefore falls outside the scope of this License.

However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.

When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.

If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
Library will still fall under Section 6.)

Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.

6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also compile or
link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
engineering for debugging such modifications.

You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
of these things:

a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
to use the modified definitions.)

b) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
least three years, to give the same user the materials
specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
than the cost of performing this distribution.

c) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
specified materials from the same place.

d) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.

For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally
distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.

It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
distribute.

7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
permitted, and provided that you do these two things:

a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
Sections above.

b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.

8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
the Library or works based on it.

10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
this License.

11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
integrity of the free software distribution system which is
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
be a consequence of the rest of this License.

12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
written in the body of this License.

13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
versions of the Library General Public License from time to time.
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
the Free Software Foundation.

14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries

If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
ordinary General Public License).

To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

<one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>

This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public
License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU
Library General Public License for more details.

You should have received a copy of the GNU Library General Public
License along with this library; if not, write to the
Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330,
Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA.

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.

That's all there is to it!

4. The maximum number of copies that LICENSEE may distribute is determined by the number of license purchased as specified in the license fee bill or a separate document.
5. LICENSED SOFTWARE is limited to a specific operating system type (e.g. Windows 32 bit systems/Intel, Mac OS/X, Intel/Linux, Free BSD, Sun Solaris, IBM AIX, HP-UX) as specified in the license fee bill or a separate document.
2.2. If you are an entity, VERYPDF grants you the right the same rights as above.
2.3. ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTS : Solely with respect to electronic documents included with the SOFTWARE, you may make an unlimited number of copies (either in hardcopy or electronic form), provided that such copies shall be used only for internal purposes and are not republished or distributed to any third party.
2.4. STORAGE/NETWORK USE : You may store or install one (1) copy of the SOFTWARE on a storage device, such as a network server, for backup and archival purposes only. A license for the SOFTWARE may not be shared or used concurrently on different computers.
2.5. You agree not to modify the Producer or Creator fields within any PDF documents created by SOFTWARE.
2.6. VERYPDF reserves all rights not expressly granted.

3. COPYRIGHT: The SOFTWARE is owned by VERYPDF and its suppliers, and its structure, organization and code are the valuable trade secrets of VERYPDF and its suppliers. The SOFTWARE is protected by United States Copyright Law and International Treaty provisions. You may use trademarks only insofar as required to comply with Section 1 of this License Agreement and to identify printed output produced by the Software, in accordance with accepted trademark practice, including identification of trademark owner's name. Such use of any trademark does not give you any rights of ownership in that trademark. Except as stated above, this License Agreement does not grant you any intellectual property rights in the Software.

4. RESTRICTIONS:
General Limitations - You may not resell, transfer, rent or lease the SOFTWARE. You agree not to modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to discover the source code of the Software. You may not alter or modify in any way the installer for the Software, or create a new installer for the Software. Any such unauthorized use shall result in immediate and automatic termination of this license and may result in criminal and/or civil prosecution.

Separation of Components - The SOFTWARE PRODUCT is licensed as a single product. Its component parts may not be separated for use on more than one computer.

Termination - Without prejudice to any other rights, VeryPDF Inc may terminate this License Agreement if you fail to comply with the terms and conditions of this License Agreement. In such event, you must destroy all copies of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT and all of its component parts.

LICENSE TYPES:
EVALUATION LICENSE: An EVALUATION LICENSE allows evaluating the LICENSED SOFTWARE to determine if the LICENSED SOFTWARE meets the LICENSEE'S requirements. An EVALUATION LICENSE may not be used for production.
END USER LICENSE: An End User License allows deploying the LICENSED SOFTWARE to one (1) COMPUTER. It does not include the right for access by concurrent users. Examples of End User computers are desktop computers and laptops that run Windows 98, Windows NT Workstation, Windows 2000 Workstation or Windows XP operating systems.
Development License Restrictions - These restrictions apply to a licensee who develops Application Software that utilizes SOFTWARE PRODUCT in a commercially distributed application.
(i) Server License: It can be easily called from VC/VB/Delphi/ASP/PHP/.NET and other languages/scripts. With Server license, LICENSEE can integrate VeryPDF's product into their web solution easily. Server License is licensed per server, LICENSEE will need to purchase a license for each server that they wish to run Server License on.
    A SERVER LICENSE allows deploying the LICENSED SOFTWARE to one (1) SERVER or a server cluster at one physical location. The CONCURRENT USER LIMIT (the maximum number of users that may access the LICENSED SOFTWARE concurrently) is identified in the license fee bill or a separate document.
    Licensee is granted the non-transferable, non-exclusive, and perpetual right to use the program on a fixed number of production servers. A production server is a single computer run by licensee (e.g., a Web server). For the server license the total number of machines is taken into account, while the number of users accessing the server is irrelevant. The total number of CPU's is also irrelevant (e.g., two dual-processor machines plus a single-processor machine results in a total machine count of three). A purchased server license may be transferred to another server if no two servers are driven concurrently under the same license agreement.

    Developer License (Royalty Free Runtime Desktop Distribution): "Desktop" is defined as an "end-user" personal computer (PC) that may have Applications installed that directly, or indirectly, utilize the Software. A single Developer License provides for unlimited distribution of Applications utilizing the Software onto Desktop environments.
   A Developer License is required when the LICENSED SOFTWARE is incorporated into a software product that is used outside of LICENSEE’S company, e.g. when the software product is sold or distributed to customers of LICENSEE. With developer license, LICENSEE can integrate VeryPDF's product with their application and distribute it with their own application to "end-users" royalty free. In this instance LICENSEE can include the LICENSED SOFTWARE within the installer used for their own application and this right takes precedence over the installer restrictions stated in 2.1 III and Section 4 - General Limitations.
    Licensee is granted the non-transferable, non-exclusive, and perpetual right to use the program in products developed, marketed, and distributed by licensee, and distribute the program to third parties as an integral part of such products. Licensee agrees that he will distribute the program to third parties only integrated or in conjunction with hardware or software products that make use of the program ("authorized products"). Such authorized products must add substantial functionality to the program, authorized products are Desktop applications, but not programming interface for Developers. Products which in essence mimic the program's programming interface (or a subset thereof) are not permitted under any license.
    Developer License is licensed by per developer, “Developer” is defined as an individual engaged in the development of a software application (the “Application”). Use of the Software requires one license per developer. Licenses are non-transferable between developers. For example, if a company has two developers that will use the Software, said company requires two developer licenses. This is the case even if the developers will not be working with the Software at the same time. This is also the case if a project involving the use of the Software is transferred from the original developer to a new developer and if the original developer returns within a one-year period.

(ii). No Application Programming Interfaces. This Agreement does not allow for exposing of the application programming interface (API) functionality to non-licensed users. LICENSEE may not create a dynamic link library (DLL), Command Line application, COM interface or ActiveX component (OCX) that exposes or wraps functionality of the SDK to a non-licensed developer. Violation of this stipulation is subject to the interpretation of VeryPDF and no other party. VeryPDF reserves the right to seek punitive damages including, but not limited to, lost income from sales. Contact the Sales Department for information on an OEM license allowing the API to be exposed to other developers.
(iii) SOFTWARE PRODUCT is not the sole or primary component of such Application Software;
(iv) You must give proper acknowledgment of the copyright of VeryPDF Software Inc;
(v) Must not be used to create a software application that competes with or is intended to compete with, directly or indirectly, the SOFTWARE PRODUCT;
(vi) The Application Software must add significant value to the SOFTWARE PRODUCT

All other uses that fall outside the scope of the License Agreement must receive the written permission of VeryPDF Software Inc.

5. ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS:
5.1. For Server License: You agree that you will only use SOFTWARE on a SERVER and all applications that will access SOFTWARE will reside on the SERVER and you will not permit remote access to SOFTWARE except through your application residing on the SERVER. Additionally, you agree not to use SOFTWARE in a generic, bureau-like fashion whereby the only functionality of your application is to submit files for conversion to PDF.

5.2. For Image2PDF, PDF2TXT, PDFcamp(PDF Writer), PDF2HTML etc. End User Applications (Desktop Applications): You agree that you will not charge any fees, directly or indirectly, internally or externally, for access to SOFTWARE. This restriction includes charging per document, for the right to convert documents on your server and/or as a requirement of any sort. You also agree that should you violate this restriction, you will pay VERYPDF an amount commensurate to the total amount collected by you for said restricted services or $2,000 US, whichever is more. You also agree to surrender your license(s) immediately upon notification of violation of this restriction and that you will not be refunded any monies upon surrendering your license. You agree to not attempt to violate the internal licensing mechanism for document processing increases. You also agree to not attempt to defeat said internal licensing mechanism by, directly or indirectly, halting and restarting the SOFTWARE.

5.3. Sublicensing: Licensee may not resell, transfer, rent or lease the program. Licensee is not allowed to transfer the rights obtained under this license to any third party, except as permitted under a redistributable license as indicated in this agreement.

5.4. Reverse Engineering and Confidentiality: If the program was acquired in binary (pre-compiled) format, licensee agrees to not translate, disassemble, or reverse-engineer the program. Licensee agrees to not redistribute or make publicly available any Registration Key (or License Key) received from VeryPDF, Inc.

6. PROPRIETARY PROTECTION
6.1. LICENSEE acknowledges and agrees that the LICENSED SOFTWARE contains valuable trade secrets and proprietary information that are the property of SUPPLIER. LICENSEE covenants and agrees not to encumber the LICENSED SOFTWARE in any manner, nor market, sell, assign, lease, transfer, license or sub-license the LICENSED SOFTWARE or any part or parts thereof, other than in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

6.2. LICENSEE shall protect the confidentiality of the LICENSED SOFTWARE and any documentation provided with the LICENSED SOFTWARE, and of all trade secrets and proprietary or other confidential information contained in such software documentation or libraries to at least the degree as the protection provided LICENSEE with respect to LICENSEE's own proprietary and confidential materials. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the protection required by LICENSEE under this paragraph shall not be less than reasonable protection. LICENSEE shall not knowingly allow or facilitate any attempt to recreate, generate, or reverse-engineer any version or any portion of any version of the LICENSED SOFTWARE by any person, nor shall LICENSEE aid, abet, or knowingly permit others to do so.

6.3. LICENSEE shall be liable to SUPPLIER for any and all damages incurred by LICENSEE as a direct or indirect result of any unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, including court costs and reasonable attorney fees. Additionally, LICENSEE acknowledges and agrees that disclosure of the trade secrets or proprietary or other confidential information of SUPPLIER or uses of the LICENSED SOFTWARE in breach of this Agreement is likely to cause SUPPLIER harm for which damages may not be adequate remedy, and that SUPPLIER shall, therefore, be entitled to equitable relief to restrain such breach, without prejudice to any other right or remedy.

7. UPGRADES: If the SOFTWARE is labeled as an upgrade, you must be properly licensed to use a product identified by VERYPDF as being eligible for the upgrade in order to use the SOFTWARE. SOFTWARE labeled as an upgrade replaces and/or supplements the product that formed the basis for your eligibility for the upgrade. You may use the resulting upgraded product only in accordance with the terms of this License Agreement. If the SOFTWARE is an upgrade of a component of a package of software programs that you licensed as a single product, the SOFTWARE may be used and transferred only as part of that single product package and may not be separated for use on more than one computer. Server License and Development licenses are not eligible for upgrades or other rights granted to products purchased with subscription.

8. REDISTRIBUTABLE CODE:
8.1. SERVER LICENSE - No portion of SOFTWARE PRODUCTS may be redistributed.
8.2. DESKTOP APPLICATION LICENSE (END USER LICENSE) - No portion of SOFTWARE PRODUCTS may be redistributed.

9. EXPORT RESTRICTIONS: You agree that neither you nor your customers intend to or will, directly or indirectly, export or transmit (a) the SOFTWARE or related documentation and technical data or (b) your software products as defined under of this License Agreement (or any part thereof), or any process or service that is the direct product of the SOFTWARE to any country to which such export or transmission is restricted by any applicable U.S. regulation or statute, without the prior written consent, if required, of the Bureau of Export Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce, or such other governmental entity as may have jurisdiction over such export or transmission.

10. NO WARRANTY. The SOFTWARE is being delivered to you AS IS and VERYPDF makes no warranty as to its use or performance. VERYPDF AND ITS SUPPLIERS DO NOT AND CANNOT WARRANT THE PERFORMANCE OR RESULTS YOU MAY OBTAIN BY USING THE SOFTWARE OR DOCUMENTATION. VERYPDF AND ITS SUPPLIERS MAKE NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS, MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT WILL VERYPDF OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY LOST PROFITS OR LOST SAVINGS, EVEN IF A VERYPDF REPRESENTATIVE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY CLAIM BY ANY THIRD PARTY. Some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental, consequential or special damages, or the exclusion of implied warranties or limitations on how long an implied warranty may last, so the above limitations may not apply to you.

11. GOVERNING LAW AND GENERAL PROVISIONS: This License Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of California, U.S.A., excluding the application of its conflicts of law rules. This License Agreement will not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded.
