# FreeType Amalgamation
|
|
|
|
A distribution of the [FreeType][1] library in amalgamated source code form.
|
|
|
|
## What's an amalgamation?
|
|
|
|
An amalgamation is simply a collection of header and source files that have been
|
|
concatenated together to form one or more very large files. In this form, they
|
|
are easy to add to your existing project as source files (rather than linking
|
|
as a library). They are also easier to redistribute if you are making an open
|
|
source application and don't want to have any external dependencies.
|
|
|
|
## What is FreeType?
|
|
|
|
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). It can be used in graphics libraries,
|
|
display servers, font conversion tools, text image generation tools, and
|
|
many other products as well.
|
|
|
|
## How do I use this?
|
|
|
|
Add FreeTypeAmalgam.c to your existing project, include FreeTypeAmalgam.h
|
|
in the source files where you want to use FreeType, and that's it!
|
|
|
|
The [FreeType Amalgmation][4] was built using the [Amalgamate Templates][3].
