RE: [ft-devel] FTGL demo problem with Batang font

[Turner, David]

Hello Kevin,

Batang includes monochrome embedded bitmaps at size 24. I suspect that
you're not correctly checking the type of the data returned by
FT_Load_Glyph() and misinterpret it as either outline or pixmap
data.


Hope this helps,
