+How to enable the TrueType native hinter if you need it
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+ The TrueType bytecode interpreter is disabled in all public releases
+ of the FreeType packages for patents reasons; see
+
+ http://www.freetype.org/patents.html
+
+ for more details.
+
+ However, many Linux distributions do enable the interpreter in the
+ FreeType packages (DEB/RPM/etc.) they produce for their platforms. If
+ you are using TrueType fonts on your system, you most probably want to
+ enable it manually by doing the following:
+
+ - open the file `include/freetype/config/ftoption.h'
+
+ - locate a line that says:
+
+ #undef TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER
+
+ - change it to:
+
+ #define TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER
+
+ These steps must be done _before_ compiling the library.
