USE Flags
cjk
Global: Adds support for Multi-byte character languages (Chinese, Japanese, Korean)
Local: Controls whether fontforge understands the gb12345 encoding and installs cidmap package to edit CID-keyed fonts
cairo
Global: Enable support for the cairo graphics library
doc
Global: Adds extra documentation (API, Javadoc, etc)
gif
Global: Adds GIF image support
debug
Global: Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml
jpeg
Global: Adds JPEG image support
nls
Global: Adds Native Language Support (using gettext - GNU locale utilities)
pasteafter
Global: Controls whether fontforge has a paste after command (Useful for making words?). This is kind of fun, but it isn't useful for normal fonts.

png
Global: Adds support for libpng (PNG images)
+python
* This flag is undocumented *
tiff
Global: Adds support for the TIFF image format
tilepath
Global: Controls whether fontforge has a tile path command (a variant of expand stroke) This is useful for very decorative fonts, most people won't want it.

type3
Global: Build in support for type3/svg fonts containing multilayered drawing with strokes, fills, images, etc. Type3 fonts are only supported by postscript printers (not by most windowing displays). They are capable of more exotic images than normal fonts but require much more effort to support.
