Package freetype2 is a minimal wrapper for the FreeType 2 library, with an API
focused around scalable vector fonts.
FreeType 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 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.
