Thanks, but I'm pretty sure I need Freetype. It's not for a GUI app. In
fact, what I am contemplating is a PDF vocabulary. And yes, I'm aware
that there is a libHaru binding in the unsupported tree, so my idea may
be neither necessary nor advisable, but I want to see what I can do. If
nothing else I'll gain a deeper understanding of the PDF file format,
which is one of my goals.

Anyway, whether I use an existing PDF library or develop my own, the
ability to embed TrueType (and hopefully OpenType) fonts is essential
for the kinds of applications I have in mind. So yes, I'm pretty sure I
need Freetype.
