Have a look at the test programs coming in the `ft2demos' demos bundle
which provide b/w rendering.  Some higher-level graphics libraries
which use FreeType internally provide color rendering.  Since I don't
use them, I can't give a recommendation, but I'm sure that others on
this list can help you more.
