Anuj,

You cannot use just the orientation of the closest contour.  That's what we did in GLyphy but is wrong for reasons you found out.  You need to calculate actual winding number of the sampling point.

In that case I will start integrating the feature in FreeType. I have

decided to create a new renderer module and add a render mode accordingly.

And since I have a standalone implementation for generating SDF from outlines,

I will go ahead and do that first and later I will do it for bitmaps.

Thanks,

Anuj
