Dear Werner, Hello! Sorry for disturbing you once, As we have planned to issue your license for our product and trying to find the preferable solution for distribution. So, could you please help to confirm which solution below are preferable.
1. Due to we already displayed your copyright on our product's display, Is there any problem if we will issue only the guideline sentence in the Instruction Manual such as " Please reference the copyright information as displayed on product" ? 2.Or you prefer to upload your copyright information on our company's webpage.? If this way, we have two choices: 1) Upload License URL link and anyone can download if required.? 2) Upload full copyright information sentence and show all information when visit our site.? Thank you in advance for your support. Best Regards, K.Jinattaporn.

What is the properly sentence of copyright we need to describe in > our work? (As we have checked previously, either users described only > short sentence or long sentence as full description.) This is explicitly described in the license text, `FTL.TXT', for example Portions of this software are copyright ©2017 The FreeType Project (www.freetype.org). All rights reserved. > 2. We want to make sure, where we can subscript your copyright? > > Specify as "in distribution document and/or all materials", for > example if we produce a product, do we need to subscript your > copyright on our product's display or only in our instruction manual > document is enough? This is also explicitly described in the license text... We suggest, but do not require, that you use one or more of the following phrases to refer to this software in your documentation or advertising materials: `FreeType Project', `FreeType Engine', `FreeType library', or `FreeType Distribution'. In other words, it's sufficient to mention FreeType in your documentation.
