Re: [ft] CFF outline rendering problem

[Róbert Márki]

Hi

I have tested it and it works. All the glyphs rendered with FT_RASTER_FLAG_DIRECT flag look the same as if they were rendered onto a bitmap.
Thanks for the fix!

Of course, you can use it any way you want.

Indeed, it was a bug, caused by a small thinko.  It is now fixed in
the git repository; please test.

Thanks for the report!
