Hi all,

does anyone know how to write a "font driver"
for FreeType under Windows, so that all Windows AP
will enjoy the quality of FreeType ?

according to "Windows graphics programming: Win32 GDI and DirectDraw"  by
Yuan Feng from HP,
 2000/XP have a mechnisim for 3rd party vendor to create a Font Driver,
which could take care of rasterizing process,
 somehow like ATM32 (adobe type manager) does,
then FreeType Font Driver will handle the *.ft files,
so if user want to have FreeType version of Arial.ttf,
simply rename or copy arial.ttf to arial.ft,  doesn't it sound great?
