Just another software link: I just found out that there exists a generic
font interface. It goes under the name VFlib (a brief search in google will
lead you there) - you just initialize the library, open a font file (with
one call to the same function for every format) and get a bitmapped
character for any resolution also with just one function call.
I thought this may be of your interest because printing strings with GGI
right now is not very powerful. With VFlib it becomes easy to add any type
of font rendering to it (Adobe Type1 with antialiasing, TrueType, PK, PCF,
etc).
Cheers,
