NAME

       glutStrokeCharacter - renders a stroke character using OpenGL.

SYNTAX

       #include <GLUT/glut.h>

       void glutStrokeCharacter(void *font, int character);

ARGUMENTS

       font	 Stroke font to use.

       character Character to render (not confined to 8 bits).

DESCRIPTION

       Without using any display lists, glutStrokeCharacter renders the character in the named stroke font. The available fonts are:

       GLUT_STROKE_ROMAN
	       A  proportionally  spaced  Roman  Simplex font for ASCII characters 32 through 127. The maximum top character in the font is 119.05
	       units; the bottom descends 33.33 units.

       GLUT_STROKE_MONO_ROMAN
	       A mono-spaced spaced Roman Simplex font (same characters as GLUT_STROKE_ROMAN) for ASCII characters 32 through 127. The maximum top
	       character in the font is 119.05 units; the bottom descends 33.33 units. Each character is 104.76 units wide.

       Rendering  a nonexistent character has no effect. A glTranslatef is used to translate the current model view matrix to advance the width of
       the character.

EXAMPLE

       Here is a routine that shows how to render a string of ASCII text with glutStrokeCharacter:

	 void
	 output(GLfloat x, GLfloat y, char *text)
	 {
	   char *p;

	   glPushMatrix();
	   glTranslatef(x, y, 0);
	   for (p = text; *p; p++)
	     glutStrokeCharacter(GLUT_STROKE_ROMAN, *p);
	   glPopMatrix();
	 }

       If you want to draw stroke font text using wide, antialiased lines, use:

	 glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
	 glEnable(GL_BLEND);
	 glEnable(GL_LINE_SMOOTH);
	 glLineWidth(2.0);
	 output(200, 225, "This is antialiased.");

NAME

       glutBitmapCharacter - renders a bitmap character using OpenGL.

SYNTAX

       #include <GLUT/glut.h>

       void glutBitmapCharacter(void *font, int character);

ARGUMENTS

       font	 Bitmap font to use.

       character Character to render (not confined to 8 bits).

DESCRIPTION

       Without using any display lists, glutBitmapCharacter renders the character in the named bitmap font. The available fonts are:

       GLUT_BITMAP_8_BY_13
	       A fixed width font with every character fitting in an 8 by 13 pixel rectangle. The exact bitmaps to be used is defined by the stan-
	       dard X glyph bitmaps for the X font named:

	       -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-C-80-iso8859-1

       GLUT_BITMAP_9_BY_15
	       A fixed width font with every character fitting in an 9 by 15 pixel rectangle. The exact bitmaps to be used is defined by the stan-
	       dard X glyph bitmaps for the X font named:

	       -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-C-90-iso8859-1

       GLUT_BITMAP_TIMES_ROMAN_10
	       A  10-point proportional spaced Times Roman font. The exact bitmaps to be used is defined by the standard X glyph bitmaps for the X
	       font named:

	       -adobe-times-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-p-54-iso8859-1

       GLUT_BITMAP_TIMES_ROMAN_24
	       A 24-point proportional spaced Times Roman font. The exact bitmaps to be used is defined by the standard X glyph bitmaps for the  X
	       font named:

	       -adobe-times-medium-r-normal--24-240-75-75-p-124-iso8859-1

       GLUT_BITMAP_HELVETICA_10
	       A  10-point  proportional  spaced Helvetica font. The exact bitmaps to be used is defined by the standard X glyph bitmaps for the X
	       font named:

	       -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-p-56-iso8859-1

       GLUT_BITMAP_HELVETICA_12
	       A 12-point proportional spaced Helvetica font. The exact bitmaps to be used is defined by the standard X glyph bitmaps  for  the  X
	       font named:

	       -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-67-iso8859-1

       GLUT_BITMAP_HELVETICA_18
	       A  18-point  proportional  spaced Helvetica font. The exact bitmaps to be used is defined by the standard X glyph bitmaps for the X
	       font named:

	       -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--18-180-75-75-p-98-iso8859-1

       Rendering a nonexistent character has no effect.  glutBitmapCharacter automatically sets the OpenGL unpack pixel  storage  modes  it  needs
       appropriately  and  saves  and  restores the previous modes before returning. The generated call to glBitmap will adjust the current raster
       position based on the width of the character.

EXAMPLE

       Here is a routine that shows how to render a string of ASCII text with glutBitmapCharacter:

	 void
	 output(int x, int y, char *string)
	 {
	   int len, i;

	   glRasterPos2f(x, y);
	   len = (int) strlen(string);
	   for (i = 0; i < len; i++) {
	     glutBitmapCharacter(GLUT_BITMAP_HELVETICA_18, string[i]);
	   }
	 }
