      6 | This package is actually two packages: freetype and harfbuzz. To circumvent  |
      7 | the circular dependency between them, they have been merged together.        |

     11 FreeType is a popular software development library used to render text onto
     12 bitmaps, and provides support for other font-related operations. The FreeType
     13 font rasterization engine is free and open-source software with the source code
     14 dual-licensed under a BSD-like license and the GPL. FreeType supports a number
     15 of font formats, including TrueType, Type 1, and OpenType and "is designed to
     16 be small, efficient, highly customizable, and portable while capable of
     17 producing high-quality output (glyph images)." [0]
     18 
     19 HarfBuzz is a software development library for text shaping, which is the
     20 process of converting Unicode text to glyph indices and positions. The newer
     21 version, New HarfBuzz (2012–), targets various font technologies while the first
     22 version, Old HarfBuzz (2006–2012), targeted only OpenType fonts. [1]
