    you will find the header files for freetype2 in the free pascal source (fpcsrc/2.6.4/packages/fcl-image/src/freetypeh.pp) I didn't use the freetype.pp which creates a font manager or something, I thought it to over kill for my needs. instead I followed the tutorials from the freetype sight to figure it out. there very good. I did have to make a small correction in the header file but can't remember what that was. if you run into problems I can send my modified source but better to try theres first because theres could be more up to date then mine

    I've used Nitrogen's Font Studio and the units that come with it to render fonts. Unfortunately http://www.nitrogen.za.org/ seems to be down. Does anyone know where Nitrogen disappeared to?

    EDIT: Found this one https://bitbucket.org/mikepote/font-studio Seems to have been updated in 2013.

    If you develop an idiot proof system, the nature develops better idiots.
