+# Documentation
+
+There is currently very little documentation. Poppler comes with multiple frontends (APIs). For the glib and Qt4 frontends there is some reference.
+
+**Qt4:** [[http://people.freedesktop.org/~aacid/docs/qt4/|http://people.freedesktop.org/~aacid/docs/qt4/]]
+
+**Glib:** [[http://people.freedesktop.org/~ajohnson/docs/poppler-glib/|http://people.freedesktop.org/~ajohnson/docs/poppler-glib/]]
+
+**C++:** [[https://oinksoft.com/doc/poppler/cpp/|https://oinksoft.com/doc/poppler/cpp/]] (rebuilt nightly from git)

+# Suggested Fontconfig font substitutions
+
+Poppler is using fontconfig to do the font searching on the system for fonts that are not embedded into the pdf files. This is a list of recommended font substitutions that distributions/users should have in their fontconfig configuration
+
+
+[[!format txt """
+Font A -> Font B
+Symbol -> Standard Symbols L
+ZapfDingbats -> Dingbats
+
+To do the substitution use
+<alias>
+ <family>Font A</family>
+ <accept><family>Font B</family></accept>
+</alias>
+
+If that does not work for you use
+
+<match target="pattern">
+ <test name="family">
+ <string>Font A</string>
+ </test>
+ <edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="same">
+ <string>Font B</string>
+ </edit>
+</match>
+
+but what you should do is warn your distribution to improve their default fontconfig configuration
+"""]]
+Both fonts come in the Free Type1 URW fonts package and is very probable distributions already ship it.
+
+This list probably should go somewhere into the tarball when it's more complete.
