- FreeType font driver for PCF fonts

-Introduction
-************
-
-PCF (Portable Compiled Format) is a binary bitmap font format, largely used
-in X world. This code implements a PCF driver for the FreeType library.
-Glyph images are loaded into memory only on demand, thus leading to a small
-memory footprint.
-
-Information on the PCF font format can only be worked out from
-`pcfread.c', and `pcfwrite.c', to be found, for instance, in the XFree86
-(www.xfree86.org) source tree (xc/lib/font/bitmap/).
-
-Many good bitmap fonts in bdf format come with XFree86: they can be
-compiled into the pcf format using the `bdftopcf' utility.
-
-
-Supported hardware
-******************
-
-The driver has been tested on linux/x86 and sunos5.5/sparc. In both
-cases the compiler was gcc. When back in Paris, I will test it also
-on linux/alpha.
-
-
-Encodings
-*********
-
-Use `FT_Get_BDF_Charset_ID' to access the encoding and registry.
-
-The driver always exports `ft_encoding_none' as face->charmap.encoding.
-FT_Get_Char_Index() behavior is unmodified, that is, it converts the ULong
-value given as argument into the corresponding glyph number.
-
-
-Known problems
-**************
-
-- dealing explicitly with encodings breaks the uniformity of freetype2
- api.
-
-- except for encodings properties, client applications have no
- visibility of the PCF_Face object. This means that applications
- cannot directly access font tables and are obliged to trust
- FreeType.
-
-- currently, glyph names and ink_metrics are ignored.
-
-I plan to give full visibility of the PCF_Face object in the next
-release of the driver, thus implementing also glyph names and
-ink_metrics.
-
-- height is defined as (ascent - descent). Is this correct?
-
-- if unable to read size information from the font, PCF_Init_Face
- sets available_size->width and available_size->height to 12.
-
-- too many english grammar errors in the readme file :-(

-Keith Packard wrote the pcf driver found in XFree86. His work is at
-the same time the specification and the sample implementation of the
-PCF format. Undoubtedly, this driver is inspired from his work.
