Need information on docx4j license

Hi,

We're planning to use docx4j in our company for generating PPTs. PPT generator code will be run as a scheduled job. When ever the data files are available, this job will run and PPT will get generated with the relevant charts and information. So, we would like to know some details on licensing. In docx4j home page, it's mentioned that it is under Apache License v2.0 and in some other page it says it's under AGPL.

Could anyone give some clarification on this as well as some info on AGPL ?

-Thanks,
Praveen

docx4j is licensed under the Apache Software License v2. For details, see https://github.com/plutext/docx4j/blob/ ... ls/LICENSE
For more info, see also https://github.com/plutext/docx4j/blob/ ... als/NOTICE

When you talk about AGPL, maybe you mean LGPL? Our separate project, docx4j-ImportXHTML:- https://github.com/plutext/docx4j-ImportXHTML is a separate project for the very reason that it has a different license. LGPL v2.1 (or later), which is the license used by Flying Saucer (the main dependency).

Otherwise, please provide links to any docx4j related page which specifies AGPL

Thanks for your response by providing licensing information. We got confused with AGPL by looking at the content under this link - http://www.docx4java.org/blog/2008/01/docx4j-license-change/
