## Excluded material

Any file not explicitly listed above retains its existing status. In
particular, the open licenses do not cover:

- the hosted pasteToPrint service or its server-side implementation,
- authentication, storage, cloud collaboration or commercial features,
- application code outside the listed reference-renderer files,
- trademarks, logos, domains or a right to claim official endorsement.

An independent implementation may describe itself as compatible with PTDF
1.0, but must not present itself as the official pasteToPrint service.
