SpriteFont build error

Content

I am very new to Monogame.

When I want to create a custom font, I will get an error:
System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL ‘freettype6.dll’
I checked the
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\MonoGame\v3.0\Tools
directory, and it was there.

I am using Monogame 3.0 and Visual Studio 2017 Community

I believe one of the font build tools needs the following to work (a lot of new ppl will need to get it):

That worked! Thank you so much!
