Now there is also freetype2. It is supposed to be able to give access to the vector data of the glyph. That give me 3 questions:
1. Is there a delphi/pascal unit for freetype2?
2. How does rendering a glyph work? Bezier->Polygon->Triangulate?
3. Has someone else already done the hard work?

With knowing how point 2 works. The font can also be save in like a milkshape ascii format. So the original font is not needed.
1. no
Afaik Free Pascal has something freetype related in the fcl-image sub-package. Is a bit small, and might only contain necessary calls though.
