   6 2.2.96

   8 Fix FcConfigUpToDate to actually check all font directories and eliminate
   9 a typo which completely prevented it from working (Lubos Lunak
  10 <l.lunak@suse.cz>)
  11
  12 Remove comma at end of FcResult enum definition for picky compilers.
  13
  14 2.2.95
  15
  16 Add FcResultOutOfMemory so FcFontSetMatch can return accurate error.
  17
  18 Replace MIN/MAX/ABS macros which happened to be in old FreeType releases
  19 with FC_MIN/FC_MAX/FC_ABS macros owned by fontconfig.
  20
  21 2.2.94
  22
  23 The 2.2.93 release was prepared with a broken libtool which created
  24 the shared library without the '.so' in the file names.
  25
  26 2.2.93
  27
  28 This is the third prerelease of fontconfig 2.3.  Significant changes from
  29 2.2.92 are:
  30
  31  o      Use new FreeType #include syntax
  32  o      use y_ppem field instead of 'height' in bitmap sizes rec -
  33         FreeType changed the semantics.  Still uses height for
  34         older versions of FreeType
  35  o      Don't construct program manuals unless docbook is available
  36
  37 2.2.92
  38
  39  o      make distcheck work
  40
  41 2.2.91
  42
  43  o      Switch to SGML manuals
  44  o      Add FC_DUAL width spacing value
  45  o      Add FcFini to close out fontconfig and release all memory

  47 2.2
  48
  49 This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and
  50 customization library.  Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the
  51 system and select them according to requirements specified by applications.
  52
  53 Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular
  54 rasterization library on the application.  The X-specific library
  55 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts.
