###### ORIGINAL SUBMISSION DETAILS ######

System Group Name:
-----------------
  freetype


Full Name:
----------
  The FreeType Project
  

Type:
-----
  non-GNU


License:
-------- 
  GNU General Public License V2 or later


Other License: 
--------------
  FreeType is dual-licensed with another free license

specific to FreeType (which has an advertising clause

and is thus incompatible to the GPL).


Description:
------------
  FreeType 2 is a software font engine that is designed to be small,

efficient, highly customizable and portable while capable of

producing high-quality output (glyph images). It can be used in

graphics libraries, display servers, font conversion tools, text

image generation tools, and many other products as well.



Note that FreeType 2 is a font service and doesn't provide APIs to

perform higher-level features, like text layout or graphics processing

(e.g. colored text rendering, "hollowing", etc.). However, it greatly

simplifies these tasks by providing a simple, easy to use and uniform

interface to access the content of font files.



FreeType 2 is released under two open-source licenses: our own

BSD-like FreeType License and the GPL.



By default, FreeType 2 supports the following font formats:



    * TrueType fonts (and collections)

    * Type 1 fonts

    * CID-keyed Type 1 fonts

    * CFF fonts

    * OpenType fonts (both TrueType and CFF variants)

    * SFNT-based bitmap fonts

    * X11 PCF fonts

    * Windows FNT fonts

    * BDF fonts (including anti-aliased ones)

    * PFR fonts

    * Type42 fonts (limited support)
