Hi Robert,
Thanks for the reply. I will apply your suggestions first thing in the
morning.
Meanwhile, I checked up the cause. I had earlier downloaded
3rdParty_Win32binaries_2005_05_10.zip tarball file containing the prepackaged
binaries as I wanted to keep the dependencies separate from the OSG. Going
through the files I found that the Zip file contains 3 directories: lib,
include and bin. Even though the lib and include directories contain the
freetype files, the bin folder does not have the FreeType DLL file. I think it
may just have slipped out.
Once again Thanks a lot
Regards
Harash

Hi Harash,
You need to have compiled the freetype plugin to be able to read true
type text, the blocky font is a fallback for when the freetype plugin
isn't available.
Mike Weiblen's 3rd party dependency package has freetype in it. Just
place the dependency package alongside the OpenSceneGraph source
package and re-run CMakeSetup.
Robert.
