Full Name:
----------
The FreeType Project
Type:
-----
non-GNU
License:
--------
GNU General Public License V2 or later
Other License:
--------------
FreeType is dual-licensed with another free license
specific to FreeType (which has an advertising clause
and is thus incompatible to the GPL).
Description:
------------
FreeType 2 is a software font engine that is designed to be small,
efficient, highly customizable and portable while capable of
producing high-quality output (glyph images). It can be used in
graphics libraries, display servers, font conversion tools, text
image generation tools, and many other products as well.
Note that FreeType 2 is a font service and doesn't provide APIs to
perform higher-level features, like text layout or graphics processing
(e.g. colored text rendering, "hollowing", etc.). However, it greatly
simplifies these tasks by providing a simple, easy to use and uniform
interface to access the content of font files.
FreeType 2 is released under two open-source licenses: our own
BSD-like FreeType License and the GPL.
By default, FreeType 2 supports the following font formats:
* TrueType fonts (and collections)
* Type 1 fonts
* CID-keyed Type 1 fonts
* CFF fonts
* OpenType fonts (both TrueType and CFF variants)
* SFNT-based bitmap fonts
* X11 PCF fonts
* Windows FNT fonts
* BDF fonts (including anti-aliased ones)
* PFR fonts
* Type42 fonts (limited support)
