 PREREQUiSiTES %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%



  This library has been written to work with PHP 5+ versions. It will also work

  with PHP 4 but the rendering quality maybe downgraded and the rendering speed

  seriously impacted.



  pChart require the GD and FreeType PHP extensions to be installed on your

  web server. This is an important prerequiste that can't be overrided.  





 WHAT CAN pCHART DO FOR YOU? %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%



  pChart is a PHP framework that will help you to create anti-aliased charts or

  pictures directly from your web server. You can then display the result in

  the client browser, sent it by mail or insert it into PDFs. 



  This library has now reached an important point in its development cycle

  going out of the beta step. pChart 2.0 is a completly rewritten library based

  on what I've learned doing the first version. 





 RUNNiNG THE EXAMPLES %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%



  pChart is shipped with examples (located in the /examples folder) that you

  can either render from a web page using your http and pointing to this folder

  or from the command line invoking the php interpreter.



  On windows OS, assuming that your PHP binaries are correctly configured in

  the PATH environment variable you can also execute the BuildAll.cmd batch

  file.





 LiCENSE %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%



  The pChart library is released under two different licenses. If your

  application is not a commercial one (eg: you make no money by redistributing

  it) then the GNU GPLv3 license (General Public License) applies. This license

  allows you to freely integrate this library in your applications, modify the

  code and redistribute it in bundled packages as long as your application is

  also distributed with the GPL license. 



  The GPLv3 license description can be found in GPLv3.txt.



  If your application can't meet the GPL license or is a commercial one (eg:

  the library is integrated in a software or an appliance you're selling) then

  you'll have to buy a commercial license. With this license you don't need to

  make publicly available your application code under the GPL license terms.

  Commercial license price are depending of your needs.

 SUPPORT %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
