(HDMI™) technology.  
The player supports Deep Color.  
The conventional players can transmit a video signal with 8 bit color  
depth in the YCbCr 4:4:4 or RGB formats, the players supporting  
Deep Color can transmit a video signal with a color bit depth of  
greater than 8 bits per color component. Subtle color gradations  
can be reproduced when connected to a TV that supports Deep

Audio signals that can be transferred with  
the player’s HDMI output terminal  
• Dolby TrueHD  
About HDMI Control function  
02  
• When the player is connected to a Pioneer Flat Screen TV, AV  
system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.) or HD AV Converter,  
supporting the HDMI Control function, it can be operated from  
the Flat Screen TV, AV system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.) or  
HD AV Converter.  
• Dolby Digital Plus  
• Dolby Digital  
• DTS-HD Master Audio  
• DTS-HD High Resolution Audio  
• DTS Digital Surround  
• MPEG-2 AAC  
• The Flat Screen TV’s input is switched automatically when  
playback is started on the player or the Home Menu or the Home  
Media Gallery is displayed. When the input is switched, the  
playback picture, the Home Menu or the Home Media Gallery  
appears on the Flat Screen TV (Auto-select function). If the Flat  
Screen TV’s power is being turned off at this time, it may turn on  
automatically (Simultaneous power function). When the  
language information from a connected Flat Screen TV is  
received, you can have the player’s on-screen display language  
change automatically to that of the Flat Screen TV (Unified  
language function). This function is available only when  
playback is stopped and the menu screen is not displayed.  
• Linear PCM  
Linear PCM audio signals meeting the following conditions can  
be output:  
– Sampling frequency: 32 kHz to 192 kHz  
– Number of channels: Up to 8 (up to 6 for a 192 kHz sampling  
frequency)  
For details, see About the audio output settings on page 50.  
• Also refer to the operating instructions of the Flat Screen TV, AV  
system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.) or HD AV Converter.  
About the HDMI high speed transmission  
This player outputs 1080/50p, 1080/60p and Deep Color video  
signals. If your TV supports 1080/50p, 1080/60p or Deep Color  
signals, use a High Speed HDMI™ cable in order to take advantage  
of the maximum performance the player and TV can offer. Also set  
HDMI High-Speed Transmission to On (page 42).  
To use the HDMI Control function  
• The HDMI Control function operates when HDMI Control is set  
to On for all devices connected with HDMI cables. Once  
connections and the settings of all the devices are finished, be  
sure to check that the player’s picture is output to the Flat  
Screen TV. (Also check after changing the connected devices  
and reconnecting HDMI cables.) The HDMI Control function  
may not operate properly if the player’s picture is not properly  
output to the Flat Screen TV.  
High Speed HDMI™ cables are tested to carry signals up to 1080p.  
1080/50i, 1080/50p, 720/50p, 1080/24p, 1080/60i, 1080/60p and 720/  
60p video signals that are capable of Deep Color can also be carried.  
• Use High Speed HDMI™ cables when using the HDMI Control  
function. The HDMI Control function may not operate properly if  
other HDMI cables are used.  
Note  
• Set HDMI High-Speed Transmission to Off when using an  
HDMI cable other than a High Speed HDMI™ cable (a Standard  
HDMI™ cable).  
• The function name of KURO LINK used on the web and in  
catalogs is referred to as HDMI Control in the operating  
instructions and on the player.  
• The following restrictions apply when HDMI High-Speed  
Transmission is set to Off:  
– Deep Color signals are not output.  
About PQLS function  
– If output video resolution is set to Auto, the signals are output  
with a resolution of 1080/50i or 1080/60i when TV’s preferred  
resolution is 1080/50p or 1080/60p.  
The PQLS (Precision Quartz Lock System) is a transfer control  
technology using the HDMI Control function. The player’s output  
signals are controlled from the AV receiver or amplifier to achieve  
high quality sound playback using the quartz oscillator of AV  
receiver or amplifier. This eliminates the influence of the jitter  
generated upon transfer which can adversely affect the sound  
quality.  
– When the output video resolution is set to 576i/480i or 576p/  
480p, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio signals are  
not output as such. They are either output as Dolby Digital or  
DTS Digital Surround signals or converted into linear PCM.  
Also, 96 kHz and 192 kHz multi-channel linear PCM audio  
signals cannot be output. They are output as 2-channel  
signals (page 50).  
• The PQLS function is only activated when the player is  
connected to a Pioneer AV receiver or amplifier compatible with  
the PQLS function via HDMI connection.  
• When an HDMI cable with a built-in equalizer is connected, it  
may not operate properly.  
• The PQLS function is only activated when playing a music CD  
(CD-DA).  
• The PQLS function is activated when the player is set as follows  
(page 42):  
HDMI Control: On  
PQLS: Auto  
About HDCP  
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a copyright  
protection system by which digital video signals are encrypted.  
• Also refer to the operating instructions of AV receiver or  
amplifier.  
When connected to a DVI device  
• It is not possible to connect DVI devices (computer displays,  
for example) that are not compatible with HDCP.  
Caution  
• No audio signals are output. Connect using an audio cable  
(included), etc.  
• If the output video resolution is switched when playing a music  
CD (CD-DA), the PQLS function does not work. This function will  
work again after playback stops and restarts.  
• This player is designed for connection with HDMI-compatible  
devices. When connected to a DVI device, it may not operate  
properly depending on the DVI device.

About Pure Cinema  
There are two types of video signals:  
Note  
• This only affects the Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby  
Digital audio signals of BDs, DVDs and movie files.  
• Video material – Video signals recorded at 25 or 30 frames/  
second  
• When Auto is selected, the setting has the same effect as High  
or Off for Dolby TrueHD signals, depending on the content. For  
Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby Digital, the setting has the same  
effect as Off.  
• Film material – Video signals recorded at 24 frames/second  
“Pure Cinema” uses signal processing suited for “film material”  
when converting 576i/480i or 1080i interlaced video signals into  
progressive video signals, resulting in clear picture reproduction  
without losing the quality of the material.  
• Audio DRC affects the audio signals output from the following  
audio output terminals:  
is displayed on the disc information screen when playing the  
“film material” pictures of DVD-Video discs (page 29).  
– Analog audio signals output from the AUDIO OUT (2 ch) or  
AUDIO OUT (7.1 ch) terminals.  
– Linear PCM audio signals output from the DIGITAL OUT  
terminals or HDMI OUT terminal.  
Adjusting the Audio DRC  
• The effect may be weak for some discs.  
Audio DRC (Dynamic Range Control) has the effect of playing loud  
sounds softly and soft sounds loudly. Adjust the setting for example  
when watching movies late at night and the dialogs are difficult to  
hear.

Condensation  
Cautions on use  
07  
If the player is moved suddenly from a cold place into a warm room  
(in winter, for example) or if the temperature in the room in which  
the player is installed rises suddenly due to a heater, etc., water  
droplets (condensation) may form inside (on operating parts and the  
lens). When condensation is present, the player will not operate  
properly and playback is not possible. Let the player stand at room  
temperature for 1 or 2 hours with the power turned on (the time  
depends on the extent of condensation). The water droplets will  
dissipate and playback will become possible.  
Moving the player  
If you need to move this unit, first remove the disc if there’s one  
loaded, and close the disc tray. Next, press STANDBY/ON to  
switch the power to standby, checking that the POWER OFF  
indication on the front panel display goes off. Wait at least  
10 seconds. Lastly, disconnect the power cord.  
Condensation can also occur in the summer if the player is exposed  
to the direct wind from an air-conditioner. If this happens, move the  
player to a different place.  
Never lift or move the unit during playback — discs rotate at a high  
speed and may be damaged.  
Place of installation  
Cleaning the player  
Select a stable place near the TV and AV system to which the unit is  
connected.  
Normally, wipe the player with a soft cloth. For tough dirt, apply  
some neutral detergent diluted in 5 to 6 parts water to a soft cloth,  
wring out thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then wipe again with a dry  
cloth.  
Do not place the player on top of a TV or color monitor. Keep it away  
from cassette decks or other components easily affected by  
magnetism.  
Note that getting alcohol, thinner, benzene or insecticide on the  
player could cause the print and coating to peel off. Also, avoid  
leaving rubber or vinyl products in contact with the player for long  
periods of time, as this could damage the cabinet.  
Avoid the following types of places:  
• Places exposed to direct sunlight  
• Humid or poorly ventilated places  
• Extremely hot or cold places  
When using chemical-impregnated wipes, etc., read the wipe’s  
cautions carefully.  
• Places subject to vibration  
Unplug the power cord from the power outlet when cleaning the  
player.  
• Dusty places  
• Places exposed to soot, steam or heat (in kitchens, etc.)  
Caution for when the unit is  
installed in a rack with a glass  
door  
Do not place objects on top  
Do not place objects on top of the player.  
Do not obstruct the ventilation holes  
Do not use the player on a shaggy rug, bed, or sofa, and do not cover  
the player with a cloth, etc. Doing so will prevent heat dissipation  
and could lead to damage.  
Do not press the OPEN/CLOSE on the remote control to open the  
disc tray while the glass door is closed. The door will hamper the  
movement of the disc tray, and the unit could be damaged.  
Keep away from heat  
Do not place the player on top of an amplifier or other device  
generating heat. When installing in a rack, to avoid the heat  
generated by the amplifier and other devices, place it on a shelf  
below the amplifier whenever possible.  
Cleaning the pickup lens  
The player’s lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for  
some reason it should malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your  
nearest Pioneer-authorized service center. Although lens cleaners  
for players are commercially available, we advise against using  
them since some may damage the lens.  
Turn the power off when not  
using the player  
Depending on the conditions of the TV broadcast signals, striped  
patterns may appear on the screen when the TV is turned on while  
the player’s power is turned on. This is not a malfunction with the  
player or TV. If this happens, turn the player’s power off. In the same  
way, noise may be heard in the sound of a radio.

Glossary  
07  
Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.  
Do not scratch the disc’s signal surface or let it get dirty.  
Do not load more than one disc into the player at a time.  
Aspect ratio  
The ratio of a TV screen’s width to its height. Conventional TVs have  
an aspect ratio of 4:3, while high definition (HD) and widescreen TVs  
have an aspect ratio of 16:9.  
Do not glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a pencil, ball-  
point pen or other sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could all  
damage the disc.  
Audio language  
Multiple audio tracks, for example the original sound and the  
dubbed sound, can be recorded on BD-ROM or DVD-Video discs. Up  
to 32 languages (32 audio tracks) can be recorded on BD-ROM  
discs, up to 8 languages (8 audio tracks) on DVD-Video discs, so you  
can select the desired language when watching the disc.  
Storing discs  
Always store discs in their cases, and place the cases vertically,  
avoiding places exposed to high temperature or humidity, direct  
sunlight or extremely low temperatures.  
AVCHD (Advanced Video Codec High  
Definition)  
The AVCHD is a high definition (HD) digital video camera recorder  
format recording high-definition onto certain media by using highly  
efficient codec technologies.  
Be sure to read the cautions included with the disc.

for pre-packaged high definition (HD) movie contents is referred to  
as BDMV on this player and in this operating instructions.  
Condensation on discs  
If the disc is moved suddenly from a cold place into a warm room (in  
winter, for example), water droplets (condensation) may form on the  
disc surface. Discs will not play properly if there is condensation on  
them. Carefully wipe off the water droplets from the disc surface  
before using the disc.  
Component video output  
This video output terminal provides clearer pictures when  
connected to a TV equipped with component inputs. Component  
video signals consist of three signals, Y, PB and PR.  
Composite video output

they can be transferred on a single cord are output from this  
terminal.  
59  
En  
Deep Color  
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content  
Protection)  
A technology for protecting copyrights that encrypts digital video  
signals.  
07  
This is one of the capabilities of HDMI™. The players supporting  
Deep Color can transmit a video signal with a color bit depth of  
greater than 8 bits per color component. Subtle color gradations  
can be reproduced when connected to a TV that supports Deep  
Color.  
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia  
Interface)  
DivX  
A digital interface standard for next-generation TVs expanding the  
DVI (Digital Video Interface) terminal used for example for computer  
displays. It allows transfer of non-compressed digital video and  
audio signals (Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Digital, DTS-  
HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS Digital  
Surround, MPEG-2 AAC, linear PCM, etc.) with a single connector.  
DivX is a media technology developed by DivX, Inc. DivX media files  
include moving picture data.  
Dolby Digital  
Dolby Digital is an audio format to record the sound in up to 5.1  
channels with a fraction of the amount of data as compared to linear  
PCM audio signals.  
Interactive audio  
The audio signals recorded in the titles of BD-ROMs. They include  
for example the clicking sound made when the menu screen is  
operated.  
Dolby Digital Plus  
Dolby Digital Plus is an audio format for high-definition media. Built  
on Dolby Digital, it combines the efficiency and flexibility to provide  
high quality multi-channel audio. With BD-ROMs, up to 7.1  
channels of digital sound can be recorded.  
Interlaced scan  
With this method, one picture is displayed by scanning it twice. The  
odd lines are displayed in the first pass, the even lines are displayed  
in the second, to form a single picture (frame). Interlaced scan is  
indicated in this player and operating instructions by an “i” after the  
resolution value (for example, 576i).  
Dolby TrueHD  
Dolby TrueHD is an audio format using lossless coding. With BD-  
ROMs, up to 8 channels can be recorded at 96 kHz/24 bits, or up to  
6 channels at 192 kHz/24 bits.  
Linear PCM  
DRM  
This is referred as the audio signals that are not compressed,  
frequently used for DVD-Video discs containing musicals or music  
concerts. This can also be indicated “48 kHz/16 bit”, “96 kHz”, etc.  
A technology for protecting copyrighted digital data. Digitized  
movies, images and music retain the same quality even when they  
are copied or transferred repeatedly. DRM is a technology for  
restricting the distribution or playback of such digital data without  
the authorization of the copyright holder.  
MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group)  
The name of a family of standards used to encode video and audio  
signals in a digital compressed format. The video encoding  
standards include MPEG-1 Video, MPEG-2 Video, MPEG-4 Visual,  
MPEG-4 AVC, etc. The audio encoding standards include MPEG-1  
Audio, MPEG-2 Audio, MPEG-2 AAC, etc.  
DTS Digital Surround  
DTS Digital Surround is an audio format to record 48 kHz/24 bits  
audio signals in 5.1 channels.  
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio  
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio is an audio format using lossy  
coding. It can record 7.1 channels at 96 kHz/24 bits.  
Multi angle  
Up to 9 camera angles can be recorded simultaneously on BD-ROM  
or DVD-Video discs, letting you watch the same scene from different  
angles.  
DTS-HD Master Audio  
DTS-HD Master Audio is an audio format using lossless coding.  
With BD-ROMs, 7.1 channels can be recorded at 96 kHz/24 bits, or  
5.1 channels at 192 kHz/24 bits.  
Parental Lock  
Playback of the contents of some BD-ROM or DVD-Video discs can  
be restricted, for example for discs containing scenes of violence.  
With BD-ROM discs, an age restriction can be set to restrict  
playback. Playing DVD-Video title can be restricted by setting the  
parental lock level.  
Dynamic range  
This refers to the difference between the maximum and minimum  
level of the sound. The dynamic range is measured in units of  
decibels (dB).  
Picture-in-Picture (P-in-P)  
This is a function for superimposing a sub video on the main video.  
Some BD-ROMs include secondary video, which can be  
superimposed on the primary video.  
When the dynamic range is compressed (Audio DRC), the minimum  
signal level is increased and the maximum signal level decreased.  
This way, the volume of loud sounds such as explosions is reduced,  
while the sounds with a low level, such as human voices, are easier  
to listen to.  
Progressive scan  
With this method, one picture is consisted of a single picture,  
without dividing it in two pictures. Progressive scan provides clear  
pictures with no flicker, in particular for still pictures that contain  
much text, graphics, or horizontal lines. Progressive scan is  
indicated in this player and operating instructions by a “p” after the  
resolution value (for example, 576p).  
Frames and fields  
A frame is the unit for one of the still pictures which compose  
motion pictures. One frame consists of a picture of odd lines and a  
picture of even lines called fields in video signal with interlaced scan  
method (576i, 1080i, etc.).  
60  
En  
Region number  
07  
A number assigned to Blu-ray Disc Players, BD-ROM and DVD-  
Video discs according to the region in which they are sold. A disc  
can be played if the region numbers indicated on the disc include  
the number set for the player or if “ALL” is indicated.  
S-Video output  
An output terminal for transmitting separate luminance (Y) and  
color (C) signals over a single cord. It offers clearer pictures than the  
composite video output.  
Secondary audio  
Some BD-ROMs include sub audio streams mixed with the main  
audio. These sub audio streams are called “secondary audio”. On  
some discs this secondary audio is recorded as the audio for the  
secondary video.  
Secondary video  
Some BD-ROMs include sub videos superimposed on the main  
videos using the Picture-in-Picture function. These sub videos are  
called “secondary video”.  
Subtitle language  
This refers to the language of the subtitles often used on movies. Up  
to 255 languages (255 types of subtitles) can be recorded on BD-  
ROM discs, 32 languages (32 types of subtitles) on DVD-Video discs,  
so you can select the desired subtitle when watching the disc.  
VC-1  
A video codec developed by Microsoft and standardized by the  
Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE). Some  
BDs include videos encoded in this codec.

listed) before diving into the code.  
OVERVIEW  
This package contains C software to implement JPEG image compression and decompression. JPEG (pronounced "jay-peg") is a standardized compression method for  
full-color and gray-scale images. JPEG is intended for compressing real-world scenes; line drawings, cartoons and other non-realistic images are not its strong suit. JPEG  
is lossy, meaning that the output image is not exactly identical to the input image. Hence you must not use JPEG if you have to have identical output bits. However, on  
typical photographic images, very good compression levels can be obtained with no visible change, and remarkably high compression levels are possible if you can tolerate  
a low-quality image. For more details, see the references, or just experiment with various compression settings.  
This software implements JPEG baseline, extended-sequential, and progressive compression processes. Provision is made for supporting all variants of these processes,  
although some uncommon parameter settings aren't implemented yet. For legal reasons, we are not distributing code for the arithmetic-coding variants of JPEG; see  
LEGAL ISSUES. We have made no provision for supporting the hierarchical or lossless processes defined in the standard.  
We provide a set of library routines for reading and writing JPEG image files, plus two sample applications "cjpeg" and "djpeg", which use the library to perform conversion  
between JPEG and some other popular image file formats. The library is intended to be reused in other applications.

En  
In order to support file conversion and viewing software, we have included considerable functionality beyond the bare JPEG coding/decoding capability; for example, the  
color quantization modules are not strictly part of JPEG decoding, but they are essential for output to colormapped file formats or colormapped displays. These extra  
functions can be compiled out of the library if not required for a particular application. We have also included jpegtran, a utility for lossless transcoding between different  
JPEG processes, and "rdjpgcom" and "wrjpgcom", two simple applications for inserting and extracting textual comments in JFIF files.  
The emphasis in designing this software has been on achieving portability and flexibility, while also making it fast enough to be useful. In particular, the software is not  
intended to be read as a tutorial on JPEG. (See the REFERENCES section for introductory material.) Rather, it is intended to be reliable, portable, industrial-strength code.  
We do not claim to have achieved that goal in every aspect of the software, but we strive for it.

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

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

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.  
ansi2knr.c is included in this distribution by permission of L. Peter Deutsch, sole proprietor of its copyright holder, Aladdin Enterprises of Menlo Park, CA. ansi2knr.c is  
NOT covered by the above copyright and conditions, but instead by the usual distribution terms of the Free Software Foundation; principally, that you must include source  
code if you redistribute it. (See the file ansi2knr.c for full details.) However, since ansi2knr.c is not needed as part of any program generated from the IJG code, this does  
not limit you more than the foregoing paragraphs do.  
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, ltconfig, ltmain.sh). Another support script, install-sh, is copyright by M.I.T. but is also freely distributable.  
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. (Since arithmetic coding provides  
only a marginal gain over the unpatented Huffman mode, it is unlikely that very many implementations will support it.) So far as we are aware, there are no patent  
restrictions on the remaining code.  
The IJG distribution formerly included code to read and write GIF files. To avoid entanglement with the Unisys LZW patent, 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."  
REFERENCES  
We highly recommend reading one or more of these references before trying to understand the innards of the JPEG software.  
The best short technical introduction to the JPEG compression algorithm is  
Wallace, Gregory K. "The JPEG Still Picture Compression Standard",  
Communications of the ACM, April 1991 (vol. 34 no. 4), pp. 30-44.  
(Adjacent articles in that issue discuss MPEG motion picture compression, applications of JPEG, and related topics.) If you don't have the CACM issue handy, a PostScript  
file containing a revised version of Wallace's article is available at ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/wallace.ps.gz. The file (actually a preprint for an article that appeared in  
IEEE Trans. Consumer Electronics) omits the sample images that appeared in CACM, but it includes corrections and some added material. Note: the Wallace article is  
copyright ACM and IEEE, and it may not be used for commercial purposes.  
A somewhat less technical, more leisurely introduction to JPEG can be found in The Data Compression Book by Mark Nelson and Jean-loup Gailly, published by M&T  
Books (New York), 2nd ed. 1996, ISBN 1-55851-434-1. This book provides good explanations and example C code for a multitude of compression methods including JPEG.  
It is an excellent source if you are comfortable reading C code but don't know much about data compression in general. The book's JPEG sample code is far from industrial-  
strength, but when you are ready to look at a full implementation, you've got one here...  
The best full description of JPEG is the textbook "JPEG Still Image Data Compression Standard" by William B. Pennebaker and Joan L. Mitchell, published by Van Nostrand  
Reinhold, 1993, ISBN 0-442-01272-1. Price US$59.95, 638 pp. The book includes the complete text of the ISO JPEG standards (DIS 10918-1 and draft DIS 10918-2). This is  
by far the most complete exposition of JPEG in existence, and we highly recommend it.  
The JPEG standard itself is not available electronically; you must order a paper copy through ISO or ITU. (Unless you feel a need to own a certified official copy, we  
recommend buying the Pennebaker and Mitchell book instead; it's much cheaper and includes a great deal of useful explanatory material.) In the USA, copies of the  
standard may be ordered from ANSI Sales at (212) 642-4900, or from Global Engineering Documents at (800) 854-7179. (ANSI doesn't take credit card orders, but Global  
does.) It's not cheap: as of 1992, ANSI was charging $95 for Part 1 and $47 for Part 2, plus 7% shipping/handling. The standard is divided into two parts, Part 1 being the  
actual specification, while Part 2 covers compliance testing methods. Part 1 is titled "Digital Compression and Coding of Continuous-tone Still Images, Part 1:  
Requirements and guidelines" and has document numbers ISO/IEC IS 10918-1, ITU-T T.81. Part 2 is titled "Digital Compression and Coding of Continuous-tone Still Images,  
Part 2: Compliance testing" and has document numbers ISO/IEC IS 10918-2, ITU-T T.83.  
Some extensions to the original JPEG standard are defined in JPEG Part 3, a newer ISO standard numbered ISO/IEC IS 10918-3 and ITU-T T.84. IJG currently does not  
support any Part 3 extensions.  
The JPEG standard does not specify all details of an interchangeable file format. For the omitted details we follow the "JFIF" conventions, revision 1.02. A copy of the JFIF  
spec is available from:

The TIFF 6.0 file format specification can be obtained by FTP from ftp://ftp.sgi.com/graphics/tiff/TIFF6.ps.gz. The JPEG incorporation scheme found in the TIFF 6.0 spec of  
3-June-92 has a number of serious problems. IJG does not recommend use of the TIFF 6.0 design (TIFF Compression tag 6). Instead, we recommend the JPEG design  
proposed by TIFF Technical Note #2 (Compression tag 7). Copies of this Note can be obtained from ftp.sgi.com or from ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/. It is expected that  
the next revision of the TIFF spec will replace the 6.0 JPEG design with the Note's design. Although IJG's own code does not support TIFF/JPEG, the free libtiff library uses  
our library to implement TIFF/JPEG per the Note. libtiff is available from ftp://ftp.sgi.com/graphics/tiff/.

ARCHIVE LOCATIONS  
The "official" archive site for this software is ftp.uu.net (Internet address 192.48.96.9). The most recent released version can always be found there in directory graphics/  
jpeg. This particular version will be archived as ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz. If you don't have direct Internet access, UUNET's archives are also available  
via UUCP; contact [email protected] for information on retrieving files that way.  
Numerous Internet sites maintain copies of the UUNET files. However, only ftp.uu.net is guaranteed to have the latest official version.  
You can also obtain this software in DOS-compatible "zip" archive format from the SimTel archives (ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/msdos/graphics/), or on CompuServe  
in the Graphics Support forum (GO CIS:GRAPHSUP), library 12 JPEG Tools. Again, these versions may sometimes lag behind the ftp.uu.net release.  
The JPEG FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) article is a useful source of general information about JPEG. It is updated constantly and therefore is not included in this  
distribution. The FAQ is posted every two weeks to Usenet newsgroups comp.graphics.misc, news.answers, and other groups. It is available on the World Wide Web at  
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/jpeg-faq/ and other news.answers archive sites, including the official news.answers archive at rtfm.mit.edu: ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/

RELATED SOFTWARE  
Numerous viewing and image manipulation programs now support JPEG. (Quite a few of them use this library to do so.) The JPEG FAQ described above lists some of the  
more popular free and shareware viewers, and tells where to obtain them on Internet.  
If you are on a Unix machine, we highly recommend Jef Poskanzer's free PBMPLUS software, which provides many useful operations on PPM-format image files. In  
particular, it can convert PPM images to and from a wide range of other formats, thus making cjpeg/djpeg considerably more useful. The latest version is distributed by  
the NetPBM group, and is available from numerous sites, notably ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/graphics/graphics/packages/NetPBM/. Unfortunately PBMPLUS/NETPBM is  
not nearly as portable as the IJG software is; you are likely to have difficulty making it work on any non-Unix machine.  
A different free JPEG implementation, written by the PVRG group at Stanford, is available from ftp://havefun.stanford.edu/pub/jpeg/. This program is designed for research  
and experimentation rather than production use; it is slower, harder to use, and less portable than the IJG code, but it is easier to read and modify. Also, the PVRG code  
supports lossless JPEG, which we do not. (On the other hand, it doesn't do progressive JPEG.)  
FILE FORMAT WARS  
Some JPEG programs produce files that are not compatible with our library. The root of the problem is that the ISO JPEG committee failed to specify a concrete file format.  
Some vendors "filled in the blanks" on their own, creating proprietary formats that no one else could read. (For example, none of the early commercial JPEG  
implementations for the Macintosh were able to exchange compressed files.)  
The file format we have adopted is called JFIF (see REFERENCES). This format has been agreed to by a number of major commercial JPEG vendors, and it has become  
the de facto standard. JFIF is a minimal or "low end" representation. We recommend the use of TIFF/JPEG (TIFF revision 6.0 as modified by TIFF Technical Note #2) for  
"high end" applications that need to record a lot of additional data about an image. TIFF/JPEG is fairly new and not yet widely supported, unfortunately.  
The upcoming JPEG Part 3 standard defines a file format called SPIFF. SPIFF is interoperable with JFIF, in the sense that most JFIF decoders should be able to read the  
most common variant of SPIFF. SPIFF has some technical advantages over JFIF, but its major claim to fame is simply that it is an official standard rather than an informal  
one. At this point it is unclear whether SPIFF will supersede JFIF or whether JFIF will remain the de-facto standard. IJG intends to support SPIFF once the standard is  
frozen, but we have not decided whether it should become our default output format or not. (In any case, our decoder will remain capable of reading JFIF indefinitely.)  
Various proprietary file formats incorporating JPEG compression also exist. We have little or no sympathy for the existence of these formats. Indeed, one of the original  
reasons for developing this free software was to help force convergence on common, open format standards for JPEG files. Don't use a proprietary file format!  
TO DO  
The major thrust for v7 will probably be improvement of visual quality. The current method for scaling the quantization tables is known not to be very good at low Q values.  
We also intend to investigate block boundary smoothing, "poor man's variable quantization", and other means of improving quality-vs-file-size performance without  
sacrificing compatibility.  
In future versions, we are considering supporting some of the upcoming JPEG Part 3 extensions --- principally, variable quantization and the SPIFF file format.  
As always, speeding things up is of great interest.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE  
Version 2, June 1991  
Copyright © 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA  
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.  
Preamble  
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your  
freedom to share and change free software - to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's  
software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License  
instead.) You can apply it to your programs, 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 software, or if you modify it.  
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they,  
too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.  
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the  
software.  
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified  
by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, 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 redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent  
licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.

En  
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.  
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION  
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General  
Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under  
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.  
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".  
07  
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted,  
and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).  
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.  
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's 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  
give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.  
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 Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, 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) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.  
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a  
whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.  
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary  
way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a  
warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program  
itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)  
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, 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 Program, 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 Program.  
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or  
distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.  
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided  
that you also do one of the following:  
a) 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; or,  
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source  
distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium  
customarily used for software interchange; or,  
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial  
distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)  
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, 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 executable. 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.  
If distribution of executable or 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 counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.  
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense  
or distribute the Program 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.  
5. 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 Program or its  
derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the  
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based  
on it.  
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute  
or modify the Program 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.  
7. 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 Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program 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 Program.  
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.  
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places  
the Program 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.  
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the 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 Program 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 Program does not specify  
a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.  
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, 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  
67  
En  
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "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 PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE  
DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.  
07  
12. 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 PROGRAM 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 PROGRAM (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 PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),  
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 Programs  
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which everyone can  
redistribute and change under these terms.  
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. 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 program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS

Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain  
conditions; type `show c' for details.  
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be called  
something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items - whatever suits your program.  
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here is a sample;  
alter the names:

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it more useful  
to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this License.  
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE  
Version 2.1, February 1999  
Copyright © 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.  
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA  
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 Lesser GPL. It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]  
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 Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially  
designated software packages - typically libraries - of the Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you first  
think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.  
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, 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 and  
use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do these things.  
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these 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 other code 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. We protect your rights with a two-step  
method: (1) we copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.  
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by someone else and passed on, the  
recipients should know that what they have is not the original version, so that the original author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be introduced by  
others.  
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free  
program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be consistent with  
the full freedom of use specified in this license.  
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to  
certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries  
into non-free programs.  
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a derivative of the  
original library. The ordinary General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General Public  
License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with the library.  
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General Public License. It also provides other  
free software developers Less of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for  
many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special circumstances.  
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve  
this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case,  
there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.  
68  
En  
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For example, permission  
to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU Linux operating system.  
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with the Library has the freedom  
and the wherewithal to run that program using a modified version of the Library.  
07  
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, whereas the latter must be combined with the library in order to run.  
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION  
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized party saying it  
may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser 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 combine 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) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library already present  
on the user's computer system, rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if the  
user installs one, as long as the modified version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.  
c) 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.  
69  
En  
d) 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.  
07  
e) 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 materials to be 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 with 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 Lesser 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 © <year> <name of author>  
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation;  
either version 2.1 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 Lesser General Public License for more details.  
You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street,  
Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 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:
