Check the +FreeType website for up-to-date details. + +This library allows you to use TrueType fonts to render text in SDL +applications. + +Be careful when including fonts with your application, as many of them are +copyrighted. The Microsoft fonts, for example, are not freely redistributable +and even the free "web" fonts they provide are only redistributable in their +special executable installer form (May 1998). There are plenty of freeware and +shareware fonts available on the Internet though, and may suit your purposes. + +WWW: http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_ttf/ |
