+Chickadee supports OpenType/TrueType fonts (via the FreeType library),
+bitmap fonts in Angel Code bmfont format, and simple sprite sheet
+bitmap fonts.  A default font named Inconsolata is used for all text
+rendering operations where a font is not specified, as is the case in

 The following procedures can be found in the @code{(chickadee render
 font)} module:
 
-@deffn {Procedure} load-font file
+@deffn {Procedure} load-font file-name point-size [#:char-set]
+Load the scalable (OpenType, TrueType, etc.) font in the file
+@var{file-name} and display it at the given @var{point-size}.  By
+default, all the characters in the ASCII character set are loaded.
+This can be changed by passing a different character set
+(@pxref{Character Sets,,, guile, GNU Guile Reference Manual}) using
+the @var{char-set} keyword argument.
+@end deffn

+@deffn {Procedure} load-bitmap-font file
 Load the Angel Code font (in either XML or FNT format) in @var{file}
 and return a new font object.
