perl-GD (perl bindings for GD image library)
-GD.pm is a Perl interface to Thomas Boutell's gd graphics library
-(version 2.01 or higher; see below). GD allows you to create color
-drawings using a large number of graphics primitives, and emit the
-drawings as PNG files.
+GD.pm is a Perl interface to Thomas Boutell's gd graphics library.
+GD allows you to create color drawings using a large number of graphics
+primitives, and emit the drawings as PNG files.
+
+The package includes the bdf2gdfont.pl utility, which converts X11 BDF
+fonts to the format used by GD.
+
+perl-GD can optionally be built with support for FastCGI. To do this,
+first install libraries/fcgi, then run perl-GD.SlackBuild with FASTCGI=yes
+set in the environment.
