SDL_ttf

This documentation was created from the original SDL_ttf documentation located here.

SDL_ttf is a TrueType font rendering library that is used with the SDL library, and almost as portable. It depends on freetype2 to handle the TrueType font data. It allows a programmer to use multiple TrueType fonts without having to code a font rendering routine themselves. With the power of outline fonts and antialiasing, high quality text output can be obtained without much effort.

SDL_ttf is available at www.libsdl.org or more specifically The SDL_ttf Homepage.
