      control, free of charge, for personal, educational or commercial work.
   b. Everything you create with the Software (your documents, PDFs, slides
      and other output) belongs to you. The author claims no rights in it.
   c. Share the official, unmodified installer for free, as long as you do not

      download page is preferred.
