 [Some work](https://dropbox.ekleog.org/leo/dtext) has already been done to replace
 libXft and Fontconfig. Real-world testing is however still needed.
 
+A simplistic solution is [Scalable Screen Font](https://dropboxlab.com/bztsrc/scalable-font2),
+which is a dependency-free, single ANSI C89 header file that can render bitmap,
+pixmap and vector fonts using the same API. Uses a very efficient font format and
+includes a multiplatform command line tool to convert virtually all font files
+into .sfn files. Comparable to professional font rendering engines, supports
+UNICODE, scaling, anti-aliasing, alpha-blending, kerning, ligatures etc.

 ***Requirements:*** Java 7 knowledge, some Wayland knowledge and of course knowledge
 about the font formats and how to handle them.
