=head1 DESCRIPTION
+Imager::Font::T1 is deprecated.
+
+F<T1Lib> is unmaintained and has serious bugs when built on 64-bit
+systems. Freetype 2 has Type 1 font support and is supported by
+Imager via Imager::Font::FT2.
+
Imager::Font creates a Imager::Font::Type1 object when asked to create
a font object based on a C<.pfb> file.

# the aim here is that we can:
# - add file based types in one place: here
);
# this currently should only contain file based types, don't add w32

L<Imager::Font::T1> uses L<< C<t1lib> |http://www.t1lib.org/ >> for
font support, supporting Postscript Type 1 fonts only.

T1Lib is abandonware, the latest released version has several bugs
that reliably crash on 64-bit systems.
