Hello Steve,

Is there any way to get the pixelmaps that freetype produces to be RGBA
instead of just alpha maps?
FreeType is a font engine, not a graphics library.
You can however provide 'span callbacks' to the AA rasterizer to
draw "colored" glyphs on any surface instead of generating alpha
maps, but you'll need to perform all the setup yourself.
See "FT_Outline_Render" and "FT_Raster_Params" in the
API reference...
