34 This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and
35 customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the
36 system and select them according to requirements specified by applications.
37
38 Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular
39 rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library
40 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts.
