History

Ed Halley cf04786a8b Removed -mpowerpc -mtune=G4 from several SCons files, so it will work on either PPC or Intel architectures under OSX. These options should be inherited properly from the rest of the OSX SCons build system.		2007-01-28 14:55:57 +00:00

FTGL 2.0.11
16 August 2004

DESCRIPTION:

FTGL is a free open source library to enable developers to use arbitrary
fonts in their OpenGL (www.opengl.org)  applications.
Unlike other OpenGL font libraries FTGL uses standard font file formats
so doesn't need a preprocessing step to convert the high quality font data
into a lesser quality, proprietary format.
FTGL uses the Freetype (www.freetype.org) font library to open and 'decode'
the fonts. It then takes that output and stores it in a format most efficient
for OpenGL rendering.

Rendering modes supported are
- Bit maps
- Antialiased Pix maps
- Texture maps
- Outlines
- Polygon meshes
- Extruded polygon meshes

FTGL is designed to be used in commercial quality software. It has been
written with performance, robustness and simplicity in mind.

USAGE:

	FTGLPixmapFont font( "Fonts:Arial");

	font.FaceSize( 72);
	
	font.render( "Hello World!");
