1How to enable the TrueType native hinter if you need it 2------------------------------------------------------- 3 4 The TrueType bytecode interpreter is disabled in all public releases 5 of the FreeType packages for patents reasons; see 6 7 http://www.freetype.org/patents.html 8 9 for more details. 10 11 However, many Linux distributions do enable the interpreter in the 12 FreeType packages (DEB/RPM/etc.) they produce for their platforms. If 13 you are using TrueType fonts on your system, you most probably want to 14 enable it manually by doing the following: 15 16 - open the file `include/freetype/config/ftoption.h' 17 18 - locate a line that says: 19 20 /* #define TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER */ 21 22 - change it to: 23 24 #define TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER 25 26 These steps must be done _before_ compiling the library. 27 28------------------------------------------------------------------------ 29 30Copyright 2003, 2005, 2006 by 31David Turner, Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg. 32 33This file is part of the FreeType project, and may only be used, 34modified, and distributed under the terms of the FreeType project 35license, LICENSE.TXT.
