  Special notes to Unix users

  ===========================



  Please  read  the file  `docs/UPGRADE.UNIX'.  It contains  important

  information regarding the installation  of FreeType on Unix systems,

  especially GNU based operating systems like GNU/Linux.



  FreeType 2's  library is called `libfreetype',  FreeType 1's library

  is called `libttf'.  They are *not* compatible!





  FreeType 2.4.2

  ==============



  Please   read   the  docs/CHANGES   file,   it  contains   IMPORTANT

  INFORMATION.



  Read the files `docs/INSTALL' for installation instructions.



  The FreeType 2 API reference is located in `docs/reference'; use the

  file   `ft2-doc.html'   as   the   top  entry   point.    Additional

  documentation is available as a separate package from our sites.  Go

  to



    http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/freetype/



  and download one of the following files.



    freetype-doc-2.4.2.tar.bz2

    freetype-doc-2.4.2.tar.gz

    ftdoc242.zip





  Bugs

  ====



  Please report bugs  by e-mail to `freetype-devel@nongnu.org'.  Don't

  forget to  send a  detailed explanation of  the problem --  there is

  nothing  worse than  receiving a  terse message  that only  says `it

  doesn't work'.



  Alternatively, you may submit a bug report at



    https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?group=freetype





  Enjoy!
