Hi Andy,

///Please ignore this if this is not what you asked for..
Assuming your platform is linux/unix, then here is what u should do:
1. unpack the archive with `tar xzvf freetype-1.3.1.tar.gz'
2. From command prompt goto the freetype directory
3. enter these
        ./configure
        make
        make install
4. if everything is fine, then your lib and test programs are installed.
5. From the same terminal issue command: ftstring ppem aa.ttf
6. finito
//////////////////

Now about "which steps must be used and which steps are not", well maybe you
should read the user.txt file specially the second part " II. Step-by-step
Example". This should help.

Dear all:

I am newbie
I have ported the freetype-1.3.1 library to my platform and
now I want to show .ttf using this library APIs step by step.
I have seen that the demo(ftstring.c ...) under the test directory but I
was confused.
I don't know which steps must be used and which steps are not.
Please give some advice about it

thanks a lot

Best regards,

Andy
