By default, FreeType doesn't do any separation into red, green, and
blue values.  It just returns a bit map which has a larger horizontal
(or vertical) resolution, namely three times larger.  Filtering
happens only if you call FT_Library_SetLcdFilter.

Have a look into the file graph/grblit.c of the ft2demos package to
see how to handle such bitmaps.
