Hello,
We are about to develop an application which needs to display a wide range of scripts from Unicode 5.0. The target plattform is HPUX 11.x. Since we don't want to rely on the HPUX font engine to display the required TrueType fonts we would like to do so using Freetype. A port for HP-UX already exist, so the only remaining problem is to draw the FT_Bitmap onto an Motif 2.x element. The native format for doing so would be an Motif compliant bitmap, that is the XBM format (please correct me if I'm wrong). Are there any other options? My question now is, does anyone know if this has been done by someone already (how?) and if not, what type of conversion would be needed? do we need to convert (MSB -> LSB) the bitmap buffer(FT_PIXEL_MODE_MONO) to generate an XBM or are both formats equal in that sense. Using Freetype to load and convert the TTFs to bitmaps would remove a lot of headache during developement and make it more predictable. Thanks a lot in advance Achim _______________________________________________ Freetype mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype
