.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Imager::Font creates a Imager::Font::FreeType2 object when asked to.
.PP
See Imager::Font to see how to use this type.
.PP
This class provides low-level functions that require the caller to
perform data validation.
.PP
This driver supports:
.IP \fBtransform()\fR 4
.IX Item "transform()"
.PD 0
.IP \fBdpi()\fR 4
.IX Item "dpi()"
.IP \fBdraw()\fR 4
.IX Item "draw()"
.PD
The following parameters:
.RS 4
.IP \(bu 4
\&\f(CW\*(C`utf8\*(C'\fR
.IP \(bu 4
\&\f(CW\*(C`vlayout\*(C'\fR
.IP \(bu 4
\&\f(CW\*(C`sizew\*(C'\fR
.RE

.SS "Special behaviors"
.IX Subsection "Special behaviors"
If you call \fBtransform()\fR to set a transformation matrix, hinting will
be switched off.  This prevents sudden jumps in the size of the text
caused by the hinting when the transformation is the identity matrix.
If for some reason you want hinting enabled, use
\&\f(CW$font\fR\->hinting(hinting=>1) to re-enable hinting.  This will need to be
called after \fIeach\fR call to \fBtransform()\fR.
