  • Rendering text
    2 projects | /r/opengl | 1 May 2022
    To render text in my own engine, I rasterise TTF files. I use FreeType to do most of the work for me and use FreeType-GL to take care of packing the glyphs into a single texture (as well as handling UTF-8 text).
  • Rendering text and images performance help?

    Storing all glyphs in a single texture like you describe is also commonly done. Another piece of code you might want to have a look at is freetype-gl: https://github.com/rougier/freetype-gl.
