Provides the low-level framework for high quality typography on iOS and OSX.
This framework is indirectly used by higher level frameworks like UIKit, MonoMac.AppKit, MonoMac.WebKitWebKit (UIKit.UIWebView and CoreAnimation. Developers can resort to CoreText when they need finer control over text layout than the one provided by the high level frameworks.
