FTGL 1.01
by gerard on Sat Oct 27 00:00:00 PDT 2001

FTGL is a library for rendering TrueType fonts in OpenGL. It is inspired by GLTT, but is instead based on the new(er) FreeType2 API.

FTGL supports all the following rendering types:

  • Outline
  • Polygonal
  • Texture mapped
  • Bitmapped
  • Antialiased pixmapped

Here is a platform-independent GLUT program which shows the basic usage of FTGL's various text rendering modes: ftgl-demo.tar.gz

Visit Henry's web site for more information about FTGL and to download the FTGL library source distribution.
