Upstream URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Font-FreeType
Summary : Read Font Files and Render Glyphs From Perl Using Freetype2
Description :
This module allows Perl programs to conveniently read information from font
files. All the font access is done through the FreeType2 library, which
supports many formats. It can render images of characters with high-quality
hinting and antialiasing, extract metrics information, and extract the
outlines of characters in scalable formats like TrueType.
Warning: this module is currently in 'beta' stage. It'll be another release
or two before it stabilizes. The API may change in ways that break programs
based on it, but I don't think it will change much. Some of the values
returned may be wrong, or not scaled correctly. See the _TODO_ file to get
a handle on how far along this work is. Contributions welcome, particularly
if you know more than I do (which isn't much) about fonts and the FreeType2
library.
