+ <para><command>&dhpackage;</command> scans the font directories on
+ the system and builds font information cache files for
+ applications using fontconfig for their font handling.</para>
+
+ <para>If directory arguments are not given,
+ <command>&dhpackage;</command> uses each directory in the
+ current font configuration. Each directory is scanned for
+ font files readable by FreeType. A cache is created which
+ contains properties of each font and the associated filename.
+ This cache is used to speed up application startup when using
+ the fontconfig library.</para>
