FreeType/2 is an OS/2 TrueType Font Driver DLL based on the FreeType
engine. It replaces IBM's TRUETYPE.DLL in Warp 4, but it can be
installed on older versions of OS/2 also.

Some features of FreeType/2: 

	- Seamless integration with OS/2. You almost don't 
	  know it's there! 
	- Supports outlines for further glyph manipulation 
	- Supports national characters (if provided in the 
	  font). Tested only with Latin 2 languages so far 
	- Works fine with older releases of OS/2. Tested on 
	  Warp 3 and OS/2 2.1 
	- It's free 
	- And last but not least, it renders fonts better 
	  than the IBM engine! 

See the FreeType/2 web site for more information:

It isn't currently available but it will be released soon.
