Each +mode corresponds to a specific type of scanline conversion performed on the +outline. + +For bitmap fonts and embedded bitmaps the 'bitmap->pixel_mode' field in the +.. data:: FT_GlyphSlotRec structure gives the format of the returned bitmap. + +All modes except FT_RENDER_MODE_MONO use 256 levels of opacity. + + +.. data:: FT_RENDER_MODE_NORMAL + + This is the default render mode; it corresponds to 8-bit anti-aliased + bitmaps. + + +.. data:: FT_RENDER_MODE_LIGHT + + This is equivalent to FT_RENDER_MODE_NORMAL. It is only defined as a separate + value because render modes are also used indirectly to define hinting + algorithm selectors. See FT_LOAD_TARGET_XXX for details. + + +.. data:: FT_RENDER_MODE_MONO + + This mode corresponds to 1-bit bitmaps (with 2 levels of opacity). + + +.. data:: FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD + + This mode corresponds to horizontal RGB and BGR sub-pixel displays like LCD + screens. It produces 8-bit bitmaps that are 3 times the width of the original + glyph outline in pixels, and which use the FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD mode. + + +.. data:: FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD_V + + This mode corresponds to vertical RGB and BGR sub-pixel displays (like PDA + screens, rotated LCD displays, etc.). It produces 8-bit bitmaps that are 3 + times the height of the original glyph outline in pixels and use the + FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD_V mode. + |
