Image Editor includes licensed commercial software and open-source components. This page provides attribution, links to the license texts shipped with the application, and explains how to request corresponding source and relink materials. A summary does not replace the license text.
The editing component and its CSS are proprietary software from PQINA, included under Visware's commercial license. They are not open source. The production IIFE and CSS are shipped byte-for-byte from the licensed customer-portal distribution; the portal input and license credentials are not distributed.
HEIC decoding uses libheif 1.23.1 and libde265 1.1.1 compiled with Emscripten 3.1.61 into an audited wasm2js JavaScript payload. Both libraries are distributed under the GNU Lesser General Public License, version 3 or later. The deployed package includes each COPYING file. Corresponding source and relink materials are retained with the release and are available through Support.
The unmodified payload retains its original donor-product banner because Image Editor adopts the audited, content-addressed decoder byte-for-byte. Image Editor's separate provenance record identifies the donor commit, upstream versions, hash, and integration boundary.
TIFF support derives from Photopea UTIF.js under the MIT License, with Image Editor's documented IE-TIFF-1 bounds and integration changes. The embedded inflater derives from Photopea UZIP.js under MIT. Ordinary lossy-JPEG TIFF support includes code with Mozilla PDF.js lineage and is accompanied by Apache License 2.0 attribution and modified-file notice. RAW-only and Fuji RAF decoder paths are not shipped.
Roboto and Material Symbols Outlined are self-hosted. Material Symbols is cut to an Image Editor-specific subset with a committed inventory, source master, codepoint map, verification script, and byte hash. These fonts are provided under the Apache License 2.0. Pintura's vendor SVG controls remain part of the licensed editor package.
Image Editor's application framework, image adapters, product mark, content, and build/test code are first-party Visware material unless a file or directory carries another notice. Import provenance records identify the pinned framework and decoder donor commits. Historical V1 and rejected V2 implementations are excluded from deployment.
The repository and immutable release package contain the applicable license files and notices. If a distributed copy is missing a notice or relink resource referenced here, contact Support so it can be corrected. Source-offer and visible LGPL treatment remain a release-approval item for the owner.
