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) of most vector and bitmap
font formats.

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.  It can  thus be used  by any
kind of projects, be they proprietary or not.

You  can use  a  `.sig` file  to verify  that  the corresponding  file
(without the  `.sig` suffix)  is intact.  First,  be sure  to download
both  the `.sig`  file and  the  corresponding archive.   Then, run  a
command like this:

  gpg --verify freetype-2.13.2.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you  don't have the required public key,
execute

  gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys BE6C3AAC63AD8E3F

to import it, then rerun the `gpg --verify` command.
