ansi2knr.c is included in this distribution by per- mission of L.

It appears that the arithmetic coding option of the JPEG spec is covered by patents owned by IBM, AT&T, and Mitsubishi. Hence arithmetic coding cannot legally be used without obtaining one or more licenses. For this reason,support for arithmetic coding has been removed from the free JPEG software.

The fonts and derivatives,however, cannot be re- leased under any other type of license. The requirement for fonts to remain under this li- cense does not apply to any document created using the fonts or their derivatives.
