The text currently reads:

 FontForge - a font editor for PS, TrueType and OpenType fonts.
 It is also a font format converter and can convert among PostScript
 (ASCII & binary Type 1, some Type 3s, some Type 0s), TrueType, and
 OpenType (Type2), CID-keyed, SVG, CFF and multiple-master fonts.
 .
 This package contains the runtime library.

Gerfried's suggestion was to use full sentences; i believe only the
first sentence itself is broken (missing a verb).  This could be fixed
in the following way:

Gerfried, can you confirm that this would be acceptable?
