+ Font Optimizer
+-==============-
+
+Developed by Philip Taylor (excors@gmail.com)
+
+The main purpose of this project is to provide a way to convert TTF files into
+smaller files that contain only a subset of the original's glyphs, focusing on
+high-quality conversion (preserving special typographic features like kerning
+and ligatures).
+
+The project mainly consists of:
+
+    Font/Subsetter.pm   - library to generate subsets of TTF files
+    Font/EOTWrapper.pm  - library to convert TTF to EOT
+    subset.pl           - example script using the libraries
+    ext/                - external libraries (particularly Font::TTF, since a
+                          specific not-yet-released version is needed)
+
+The libraries are used in the web service at http://fonts.philip.html5.org/
+
+The code doesn't really have any documentation or proper APIs, and it hasn't
+been tested on a wide range of fonts, but when it works it should be fairly
+reliable and stable.
