1 Definitions
The effective date of this agreement is the date shown on the invoice. This agreement defines the li-
censing terms for the software known as PDFlib. PDFlib 3.02, all maintenance updates which are desig-
nated as such by PDFlib GmbH, as well as all new versions which are released by PDFlib GmbH within
60 days after the effective date of this agreement will be collectively referred to as »the program« in
this agreement. The program is delivered with an English-language manual which describes PDFlib’s
programming features and their usage (»the documentation«).
2 License Types
As indicated on the invoice, licensee chooses one of the license types (a) or (b) below (but not both un-
der a single license). Under any license type licensee may use the program on an unlimited number of
development machines, provided these machines are not used for production purposes at the same
time (for example, they cannot be accessed over any network by the general public).
(a) Server License
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 CPUs (processors) is taken into account, while
the number of users accessing the server is irrelevant. The total number of machines is also irrelevant
(e.g., two dual-processor machines plus a single-processor machine result in a total CPU count of five).
A purchased server license may be transferred to another server if no two servers are driven concur-
rently under the same license agreement.
(b) Redistributable (Runtime) License
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. For the runtime license the total number of redistributed copies
of the program is taken into account. (For example, if licensee sells 50 copies of one product and 100
copies of another product which are both based on the program, a total of 150 runtime licenses is re-
quired.) If licensee distributes non-free updates of such products, all distributed copies of the updates
contribute to the total count of runtime licenses.
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 au-
thorized products must add substantial functionality to the program. Products which in essence mim-
ic the program’s programming interface (or a subset thereof) are not permitted under any license.
The redistributable license includes the right to sublicense to third parties the right to use authorized
products to the extent such authorized products use the program. The redistributable license does not
include any server license as discussed under section 2 (a) of this agreement.
3 Restrictions
(a) Intellectual Property
Licensee acknowledges that the program is copyrighted intellectual property of PDFlib GmbH, and
that PDFlib GmbH retains exclusive ownership of the program and related documentation, subject
however to all terms and conditions of this agreement.
PDFlib 3.02 License Agreement (created August 21, 2000) Page 1 of 3
It is expressly agreed that this license does not include ownership of the program’s source code, but
only the right-to-use as defined by this agreement. If source code is delivered, this is only a means for
simplifying technical procedures.
(b) 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 li-
cense as indicated in section 2 (b).
This license applies to one incorporated unit, and does not extend to subsidiaries.
(c) Reverse Engineering and Confidentiality
If the program was acquired in binary (pre-compiled) format, licensee agrees to not translate, disas-
semble, or reverse-engineer the program.
Licensee agrees to not redistribute or make publicly available any registration key received from PDFlib
GmbH, except as part of his own product when required for a redistributable license as indicated in
section 2 (b).
4 Delivery
The program and documentation are delivered in digital format only. Licensee agrees to retrieve the
program and documentation, as well as any relevant maintenance updates from licensor’s Web site at
www.pdflib.com. Neither digital storage media nor printed documentation will be delivered to licens-
ee by PDFlib GmbH.
5 Warranty and Support
(a) Performance of the Program
PDFlib GmbH warrants that the program will perform substantially in accordance with the documen-
tation when used as directed in the documentation. This warranty does not cover use of the program
in ways which are not covered in the documentation (e.g., by calling undocumented internal func-
tions, or not obeying documented restrictions), or using modified copies of the program.
PDFlib GmbH warrants that licensor is owner of the program with authority to license the program to
licensee, and that the program does not infringe third party intellectual property rights. Licensor
agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless licensee from any claims either that licensor does not
own the program, or that the program infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights.
In the event the unmodified program fails to satisfy this limited warranty during a warranty period of
six months after the effective date of this agreement, PDFlib GmbH shall promptly, at its expense and
in its discretion, (i) provide a correction or workaround for any reproducible errors which are reported
by licensee, and deliver an updated version of the program, or (ii) return a refund of any license fees
paid pursuant to this agreement. In this event licensee will immediately terminate any use and distri-
bution of the program.
Technical support as described above is available by e-mail only. Maintenance upgrades of the pro-
gram as indicated in section 4 do not extend the initial warranty period.
(b) Warranty against Disablement
PDFlib GmbH expressly represents and warrants that, other than a disabling mechanism on the func-
tional evaluation copy of the program which disabling mechanism is removed upon receipt by licensee
of the registration key for the full version of the program, the program will not intentionally cause or
permit any portion of the program provided or developed by PDFlib GmbH hereunder to contain any
protection feature designed to prevent its use. These protection features include, without limitation,
any computer virus, worm, software lock, drop dead device, Trojan-horse routine, trap door, time
bomb, or any other codes or instructions that may be used to access, modify, delete, damage or disable
PDFlib 3.02 License Agreement (created August 21, 2000) Page 2 of 3
the program or any other component of licensee’s computer systems. If PDFlib GmbH becomes aware
of any such feature, PDFlib GmbH will promptly notify licensee thereof. PDFlib GmbH further repre-
sents and warrants that it will not impair the operation of the program in any way other than pursu-
ant to an order of a court of law.
(c) Limitations and Disclaimer
Except for breach of PDFlib GmbH’s warranties of ownership of the program and non-infringement of
third party intellectual property, the foregoing states the sole and exclusive remedies for PDFlib
GmbH’s breach of warranty. The foregoing warranties are in lieu of all other warranties or conditions,
express or implied, and any implied warranty or condition of fitness for a particular purpose, mer-
chantability, or merchantable quality. No person is authorized to make any other warranty or repre-
sentation concerning the performance of the program other than according to this paragraph.
Licensee shall make no other warranty, express or implied, on behalf of PDFlib GmbH.
6 Consequential Damages Waiver
Neither party will be liable for any loss of use, interruption of business, or any indirect, special, inci-
dental, or consequential damages of any kind (including lost profits), regardless of the form of action
whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict product liability or otherwise.
7 Applicable Law
This license is governed by the laws of Germany, excluding choice of law rules. If any part of this li-
cense is found to be in conflict with the law, that part shall be interpreted in its broadest meaning con-
sistent with the law, and no other parts of the license shall be affected.
8 Final Agreement
This agreement constitutes the complete, final and exclusive expression of the parties’ agreement,
and supersedes all proposals and other communications made between the parties concerning the
subject matter hereof. This agreement cannot be modified except by written agreement signed by all
the parties hereto.
