I'm compiling PHP5.2.9 on Mac OS X 10.5.6. Need some help to figure this out. I have PHP compiling and working with a basic config, and now I'm trying to compile with GD2. The problem I'm running into is that if I add the argument to build with Freetype, I get build errors. This is my minimum config to demo the problem. Also, I know tha...
I want to write a hardware accelerated text renderer using Free Type 2 to load the fonts, find the correct glyphs and their sizes etc. My plan to do this is to have a large texture containing glyphs (for a given font,size,etc) in video memory, and a table for each texture defining information about the contents of the texture in system ...
Does any one know samples/tutorials of how to use Freetype in win32 apps ...
Hi SO Friends, I am working on embedded system, with own windowing system and rendering library. Before someday when I installed Ubuntu, to my surprise it has LCD subpixel rendering. It really looks cool to have it on my device. Because it is very readable. Currently I ask for particular glyph in freetype, freetype gives me one memory ...
There seems to be a problem compiling freetype2 with MinGW and MSYS My attempts on a clean copy of the freetype source, and an unadulterated MinGW and MSYS give: Andrew@MCARDLE-PC ~/documents/code $ cd freetype-2.3.11 Andrew@MCARDLE-PC ~/documents/code/freetype-2.3.11 $ ./configure FreeType build system -- automatic system detection ...
What should I do to to render sample string with specified font to the QPixmap? QT still cannot working with Type1 font, but it is required. My code: int e; e = FT_Init_FreeType(&library); e = FT_New_Face( library, "arial.ttf", 0, &face ); e = FT_Set_Char_Size( face, size << 6, size << 6, 96, 96 ); e = FT_Set_Pixel_S...
I'm using the FreeType2 library in an iPhone project, and I'm trying to simply load a TTF file from the system, if possible. FT_Library library; FT_Face face; int error; error = FT_Init_FreeType( &library ); if ( error == 0 ) printf("Initialized FreeType2\r\n"); /* Prints */ error = FT_New_Face(library, "/System/Library/Font...
Hello. I'm teaching myself OpenGL and I'm implementing ttf text rendering using FreeType 2. I downloaded the library from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/freetype.htm and after a couple of minor issues I got it running properly. The thing that's bothering me is that I have to place a copy of freetype6.dll in the directory w...
Hi, I'm trying to convert a FreeType2 bitmap to a System::Drawing::Bitmap in C++/CLI. FT_Bitmap has a unsigned char* buffer that contains the data to write. I believe that the size of byte[] is incorrect and that my data is truncated. Any hints/tips/ideas on what is going on here would be greatly appreciated. Links to articles ex...
