fontconfig

generic font configuration library Fontconfig is a font configuration and customization library, which does not depend on the X Window System. It is designed to locate fonts within the system and select them according to requirements specified by applications. Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts. This package contains a program to maintain the fontconfig cache (fc-cache), and a sample program to list installed fonts (fc-list).
