The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: FONT::FT2
DSLIP: adprg
description: Low and high level interfaces for Freetype 2
userid: CAFFIEND (Andrew Robertson)
chapterid: 18 (Images_Pixmaps_Bitmaps)
communities:
comp.lang.perl.modules
similar:
Imager::font::freetype2
rationale:
FONT::FT2 is a functional Perl extension to allow the manipulation
of characters and fonts. Is intended to simplify image generation
based on text data.
Imager::font::freetype2 is biased towards generation of images for
web publication. FONT::FT2 is intended to be used by typesetting
applications and drawing applications like Gimp::Perl and Sodipodi.
Also, FONT::FT2 is planned to support Postscript output (it already
supports text and xpm output) for generation of printed pages for
labels, banners, notices, and silk screening. Included in the
examples are scripts for generating Gnome Mahjongg tilesets.
FONT::FT2 was written and functional before I knew of
Imager::font::freetype2.
