There's my pgeFont library, which loads TTF and converts it to a bitmap font: http://insomniac.0x89.org/index.php?id=77

There's also intraFont which uses the PSP native fonts: http://www.psp-programming.com/benhur/

Also most of the available engines use font rendering on their own, oslib, tri etc.

Wow , your lib looks nice.

Im using OSLIB but the font support is very poor.

I have created a "CTextEffects" class which prints preloaded images(OSL_IMAGE **) at a given position(x,y) , and increases the position by m_Img->width().

Im using my class like this:
Code:

//loads images from a directory A..Z a..z 0..9
CTextEffects text("data//raw_font_images//");

//add cached text
text.put_in_cache("Test text","TEST1");

//print cached text
text.print_from_cache("TEST1");

//another example(without using cached text)
text.print("Hello..");

//clean up
text.clear();


Easy ,...but very slow ..

Just 2 questions..
1)Your library is compatible with OSLIB?
2)And i would also like to know if it supports complex(with cool characters) TTF files.
Edit: Ohh , it uses freetype library..hmm then i guess it will work with any font file :)

Too bad ...it doesn't work with oslib....(or im doing something wrong)


Here's my test code :


DEMO.CPP :
Code:

   e->init(INIT_SOUND|INIT_GFX);

   e->sound.push("lol.wav","L1");

   pgeFont *f = pgeFontLoad("impact.ttf", 20, PGE_FONT_SIZE_PIXELS, 128);

   if(!f)e->sys.shutdown();

   pgeFontActivate(f);

   while(e->sys.running())
   {
   e->sound.play("L1");
   int t = e->timer.elapsedTime();
   std::string s = e->conv_util.int2str(t);
   e->events.proccess();
   if(e->buttonPressed(B_CROSS))e->sys.shutdown();
        e->gfx.begin();   

   pgeFontPrint(f,200, 200, RED, s.c_str());
   e->gfx.end();
   e->sound.proccessChannels();
   e->timer.update();
   }



Code:

gfx begin code:
   oslCls();
   oslStartDrawing();

gfx end code :

   oslEndDrawing();
   oslSwapBuffers();
   oslEndFrame();
