2 Font configuration and customization library
6 This is the first public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and
7 customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the
8 system and select them according to requirements specified by applications.
10 Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular
11 rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library
12 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts.
