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-2.13.1.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.

CHANGES BETWEEN 2.13.0 and 2.13.1 (2023-Jun-24)
I. MISCELLANEOUS
- New function `FT_Get_Default_Named_Instance` to get the index of
the default named instance of an OpenType Variation Font.
- A new load flag `FT_LOAD_NO_SVG` to make FreeType ignore glyphs in
an 'SVG ' table.
- New function `FT_GlyphSlot_AdjustWeight` to adjust the glyph
weight either horizontally or vertically. This is part of the
`ftsynth.h` header file, which is still considered to be in alpha
stage.
- TrueType interpreter version 38 (also known as 'Infinality') has
been deactivated; the value of `TT_INTERPRETER_VERSION_38` is now
the same as `TT_INTERPRETER_VERSION_40`.
- Updated OpenVMS support.
- The base API documentation has been modularized for easier
handling.
- Switching named instances on and off in Variation Fonts was buggy
if the design coordinates didn't change.
- `ftbench` has a new command-line option `-a` to apply design
coordinates.
- `ftview` can now flip SVG rendering on and off using the 'Z' key.
- In `ftmulti` it is now possible to toggle the fill rule and
overlap flag used for rendering glyphs using the 'F3' and 'F4'
keys, respectively. Toggling the anti-aliased mode has been
changed to the 'TAB' key.
