Welcome! Please read this information.

This is Gerben Wierda's binary distribution of Freetype 2 for Mac OS X. Freetype is a library of font functions used by many applications.

The i-Package has been created by downloading freetype2 from sourceforge and compiling and installing it with make. This worked out of the box.

For information on i-Installer.app packages, see the i-Installer.app Help function. Especially read about the risks of installing software from the net and how you can inspect the contents of your package.
