Re: [Devel] ftview and gray4 support

[Werner LEMBERG]

The BDF driver supports different gray levels for glyphs (2, 4, and 8
bpp) but it always returns an 8bpp glyph.

The TrueType driver also supports 2, 4, and 8bpp but it doesn't do the
conversion to 8bpp.

This is inconsistent.  I would like to move the 2->8bpp and 4->8bpp
code from the BDF driver to the ftview demo program.

Any objections?  Or do you think that the opposite solution (this is,
adding 2->8bpp and 4->8bpp conversion to the TrueType driver) is
better?
