FreeType

FreeType: font engine and rasterizer

FreeType 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 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. •FreeType1 is in freetype-1.0 •FreeType2 is in freetype-1.1 / 1.4 •FreeType6 is in freetype-2.0.1 and higher Development http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/freetype.htm ftview
