20 This is the third prerelease of fontconfig 2.3. Significant changes from
21 2.2.92 are:
22
23 o Use new FreeType #include syntax
24 o use y_ppem field instead of 'height' in bitmap sizes rec -
25 FreeType changed the semantics. Still uses height for
26 older versions of FreeType

41 This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and
42 customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the
43 system and select them according to requirements specified by applications.
44
45 Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular
46 rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library
47 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts.
