The Free Pascal FreeType has no support for orientation, for the simple

You don't need to take my word for it, just check the sources.
I have already checked them when I implemented font rotation in
TAChart/FPCanvas.
See
https://github.com/graemeg/freepascal/blob/master/packages/fcl-image/src/ftfont.pp#L238
https://github.com/graemeg/lazarus/blob/upstream/components/tachart/tadrawerfpcanvas.pas#L255
Ah. Well, how am I supposed to know about that ?
The Git repository is private for Graeme. Changes to it are not communicated
back to FPC.
Why did you not submit a patch to FPC ?
Forget this reply;
I understood you wrong, I thought you had implemented it and committed it in
Git.
There is a property Angle there (private to FreeType font), but I was looking for
Orientation (the LCL and FPCanvas property).
The Angle property should of course be translated to Orientation, to match the
LCL.
My apologies for the too fast reaction :/
Michael.
