FreeType 2.13.2

Homepage: https://www.freetype.org

FreeType is a freely available software library to render fonts.

It is written in C, designed to be small, efficient, highly customizable, and portable while capable of producing high-quality output (glyph images) of most vector and bitmap font formats.

Please read the docs/CHANGES file, it contains IMPORTANT INFORMATION.

Read the files docs/INSTALL* for installation instructions; see the file docs/LICENSE.TXT for the available licenses.

For using FreeType's git repository instead of a distribution bundle, please read file README.git. Note that you have to actually clone the repository; using a snapshot will not work (in other words, don't use gitlab's 'Download' button).

The FreeType 2 API reference is located in directory docs/reference; use the file index.html as the top entry point. [Please note that currently the search function for locally installed documentation doesn't work due to cross-site scripting issues.]

Additional documentation is available as a separate package from our sites. Go to

https://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/freetype/

and download one of the following files.

freetype-doc-2.13.2.tar.xz freetype-doc-2.13.2.tar.gz ftdoc2132.zip
