Now, I want a stroke around the glyphs (of n pixel wide, where n is a float). I could put it in the red channel for example (so I can use it in GL fragment shader later to do whatever I want).The word `stroke' is misleading, I think, since this means something different in the font world. You rather mean emboldening, don't you? Try the ftview demo program and press keys `2' to see FreeType's emboldening feature.
Actually, what I wanted was what you have when doing '3' in the ftview program.
My idea is to put the first (key '1' in ftview) bitmap (as I do now) in the gray channel, and the "stroke" bitmap (key '3' in ftview) in, let's say, the red channel.
I will look into the ftview source, thanks for the direction. Best regards and happy new year -- kuon http://kuon.goyman.com http://goyman.com
