1FreeType 2.13.0 2=============== 3 4Homepage: https://www.freetype.org 5 6FreeType is a freely available software library to render fonts. 7 8It is written in C, designed to be small, efficient, highly 9customizable, and portable while capable of producing high-quality 10output (glyph images) of most vector and bitmap font formats. 11 12Please read the `docs/CHANGES` file, it contains IMPORTANT 13INFORMATION. 14 15Read the files `docs/INSTALL*` for installation instructions; see the 16file `docs/LICENSE.TXT` for the available licenses. 17 18For using FreeType's git repository instead of a distribution bundle, 19please read file `README.git`. Note that you have to actually clone 20the repository; using a snapshot will not work (in other words, don't 21use gitlab's 'Download' button). 22 23The FreeType 2 API reference is located in directory `docs/reference`; 24use the file `index.html` as the top entry point. [Please note that 25currently the search function for locally installed documentation 26doesn't work due to cross-site scripting issues.] 27 28Additional documentation is available as a separate package from our 29sites.
