Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: InnoTek Font Engine for OS/2

The InnoTek Font Engine for OS/2 (powered by Freetype 2) is a port of the
Freetype 2 font engine to the OS/2 Warp platform which provides a tight
integration with the OS/2 graphics subsystem. It is designed to be able to
replace the OS/2 font rendering subsystem for selected (tested)
applications.

The benefits of the Freetype library compared to the default OS/2 font
engine can be summarized as follows:

    * greatly improved font rendering quality for both TrueType and Adobe
Type 1 outline fonts
    * 8-bit (256 color) anti-aliasing for smoother font display
    * better support for displaying Unicode font data
    * more accurate character spacing
    * enhanced APIs going beyond the capabilities of the OS/2 graphics
subsystem (such as glyph outline query support)

Currently, InnoTek supports the use of the InnoTek Font Engine for OS/2
with the Mozilla and IBM Web Browser for OS/2 products. The font rendering
quality improvements achieved by using InnoTek's font engine with the
Mozilla are so remarkable that every user will immediately enjoy the
benefits of using the product.
