I am working on embedded system, with own windowing system and rendering library. Before someday when I installed Ubuntu, to my surprise it has LCD subpixel rendering. It really looks cool to have it on my device. Because it is very readable.
Currently I ask for particular glyph in freetype, freetype gives me one memory buffer with values of alpha, with that it is not possible to have subpixel rendering. What I have is normal antialiazed font. As in subpixel - rendering left most pixel of font is anti-aliazed with Red and Rightmost with Blue ( Assuming Screen is RGB ).
Is there any methods with which freetype can give me information that whether current pixel is left or right or centerone?
Thanks, Sunny.
freetype can do it
