//! `font-kit` provides a common interface to the various system font libraries and provides
//! services such as finding fonts on the system, performing nearest-font matching, and rasterizing
//! glyphs.
//!
//! ## Synopsis
//!
//!     # extern crate font_kit;
//!     # extern crate pathfinder_geometry;
//!     #
//!     use font_kit::canvas::{Canvas, Format, RasterizationOptions};
//!     use font_kit::family_name::FamilyName;
//!     use font_kit::hinting::HintingOptions;
//!     use font_kit::properties::Properties;
//!     use font_kit::source::SystemSource;
//!     use pathfinder_geometry::transform2d::Transform2F;
//!     use pathfinder_geometry::vector::{Vector2F, Vector2I};
//!
//!     let font = SystemSource::new().select_best_match(&[FamilyName::SansSerif],
//!                                                      &Properties::new())
//!                                   .unwrap()
//!                                   .load()
//!                                   .unwrap();
//!     let glyph_id = font.glyph_for_char('A').unwrap();
//!     let mut canvas = Canvas::new(Vector2I::splat(32), Format::A8);
//!     font.rasterize_glyph(&mut canvas,
//!                          glyph_id,
//!                          32.0,
//!                          Transform2F::from_translation(Vector2F::new(0.0, 32.0)),
//!                          HintingOptions::None,
//!                          RasterizationOptions::GrayscaleAa)
//!         .unwrap();
//!
//! ## Backends
//!
//! `font-kit` delegates to system libraries to perform tasks. It has two types of backends: a
//! *source* and a *loader*. Sources are platform font databases; they allow lookup of installed
//! fonts by name or attributes. Loaders are font loading libraries; they allow font files (TTF,
//! OTF, etc.) to be loaded from a file on disk or from bytes in memory. Sources and loaders can be
//! freely intermixed at runtime; fonts can be looked up via DirectWrite and rendered via FreeType,
//! for example.
//!
//! Available loaders:
//!
//! * Core Text (macOS): The system font loader on macOS. Does not do hinting except when bilevel
//!   rendering is in use.
//!
//! * DirectWrite (Windows): The newer system framework for text rendering on Windows. Does
//!   vertical hinting but not full hinting.
//!
//! * FreeType (cross-platform): A full-featured font rendering framework.
//!
//! Available sources:
//!
//! * Core Text (macOS): The system font database on macOS.
//!
//! * DirectWrite (Windows): The newer API to query the system font database on Windows.
//!
//! * Fontconfig (cross-platform): A technically platform-neutral, but in practice Unix-specific,
//!   API to query and match fonts.
//!
//! * Filesystem (cross-platform): A simple source that reads fonts from a path on disk. This is
//!   the default on Android and OpenHarmony.
//!
//! * Memory (cross-platform): A source that reads from a fixed set of fonts in memory.
//!
//! * Multi (cross-platform): A source that allows multiple sources to be queried at once.
//!
//! On Windows and macOS, the FreeType loader and the Fontconfig source are not built by default.
//! To build them, use the `loader-freetype` and `source-fontconfig` Cargo features respectively.
//! If you want them to be the default, instead use the `loader-freetype-default` and
//! `source-fontconfig-default` Cargo features respectively. Beware that
//! `source-fontconfig-default` is rarely what you want on those two platforms!
//!
//! ## Features
//!
//! `font-kit` is capable of doing the following:
//!
//! * Loading fonts from files or memory.
//!
//! * Determining whether files on disk or in memory represent fonts.
//!
//! * Interoperating with native font APIs.
//!
//! * Querying various metadata about fonts.
//!
//! * Doing simple glyph-to-character mapping. (For more complex use cases, a shaper is required;
//!   proper shaping is beyond the scope of `font-kit`.)
//!
//! * Reading unhinted or hinted vector outlines from glyphs.
//!
//! * Calculating glyph and font metrics.
//!
//! * Looking up glyph advances and origins.
//!
//! * Rasterizing glyphs using the native rasterizer, optionally using hinting. (Custom
//!   rasterizers, such as Pathfinder, can be used in conjunction with the outline API.)
//!
//! * Looking up all fonts on the system.
//!
//! * Searching for specific fonts by family or PostScript name.
//!
//! * Performing font matching according to the [CSS Fonts Module Level 3] specification.
//!

//! `font-kit` is licensed under the same terms as Rust itself.
