Hi there,

I was wondering how the text support shall be included in the OIV in a
most natural way ... it seems to me that the ideal candidate would
really be the freetype library (and possible freetype-stubs for
windows). Moreover, there exists a library for rendering TrueType
fonts using FreeType (http://gltt.sourceforge.net/) that probably
does a big part of what is needed for rendering text in Inventor.

Any other ideas? What about libFL?
