Branch: pkgsrc-2008Q1, Version: 2.3.6, Package name: freetype2-2.3.6, Maintainer: rh

FreeType is a portable, high-quality software solution for digital
typography. FreeType 1.3.1 was the last release of the FreeType 1
engine, as the project is now switching to a new version dubbed FreeType
2. It has, among other things, several advantages over FreeType 1:

* A universal and simple API to manage font files
* Support for several font formats through loadable drivers
* Even more portable
* An improved anti-aliasing algorithm
