Hello, freetype. I was looking to convert some TTF fonts to bitmaps for use in the Linux console, and I was wondering whether freetype might be the right software for this.
Within half an hour of starting to read your tutorial, not only was it clear that the answer is yes, it even told me how to make the conversion! This tutorial is absolutely brilliant! It goes into exactly the right level of detail (at least, for me), and covered most (?all) of the little points I thought I'd need to spend hours scanning a manual for. Many thanks to the person who took the trouble to write it so well. -- Alan Mackenzie (Nuremberg, Germany).
