136    *     stored in most-significant order (MSB), which means that the
137    *     left-most pixel in a byte has value 128.
138    *
139    *   FT_PIXEL_MODE_GRAY ::
140    *     An 8-bit bitmap, generally used to represent anti-aliased glyph
141    *     images.  Each pixel is stored in one byte.  Note that the number of
142    *     'gray' levels is stored in the `num_grays` field of the @FT_Bitmap
143    *     structure (it generally is 256).
144    *

146    *     A 2-bit per pixel bitmap, used to represent embedded anti-aliased
147    *     bitmaps in font files according to the OpenType specification.  We
148    *     haven't found a single font using this format, however.
149    *

151    *     A 4-bit per pixel bitmap, representing embedded anti-aliased bitmaps
152    *     in font files according to the OpenType specification.  We haven't
153    *     found a single font using this format, however.
154    *
155    *   FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD ::
156    *     An 8-bit bitmap, representing RGB or BGR decimated glyph images used
157    *     for display on LCD displays; the bitmap is three times wider than
158    *     the original glyph image.  See also @FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD.

160    *   FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD_V ::
161    *     An 8-bit bitmap, representing RGB or BGR decimated glyph images used

168    *     representing a color image (such as emoticons) with alpha channel.
169    *     For each pixel, the format is BGRA, which means, the blue channel
170    *     comes first in memory.  The color channels are pre-multiplied and in
171    *     the sRGB colorspace.  For example, full red at half-translucent

213    *   field.

217    *     The number of bitmap rows.

219    *   width ::
220    *     The number of pixels in bitmap row.
221    *
222    *   pitch ::
223    *     The pitch's absolute value is the number of bytes taken by one
224    *     bitmap row, including padding.  However, the pitch is positive when
225    *     the bitmap has a 'down' flow, and negative when it has an 'up' flow.
226    *     In all cases, the pitch is an offset to add to a bitmap pointer in
227    *     order to go down one row.
228    *
229    *     Note that 'padding' means the alignment of a bitmap to a byte
230    *     border, and FreeType functions normally align to the smallest
231    *     possible integer value.
232    *
233    *     For the B/W rasterizer, `pitch` is always an even number.
234    *
235    *     To change the pitch of a bitmap (say, to make it a multiple of 4),
236    *     use @FT_Bitmap_Convert.  Alternatively, you might use callback
237    *     functions to directly render to the application's surface; see the

241    *     A typeless pointer to the bitmap buffer.  This value should be

243    *
244    *   num_grays ::
245    *     This field is only used with @FT_PIXEL_MODE_GRAY; it gives the

247    *

249    *     The pixel mode, i.e., how pixel bits are stored.  See @FT_Pixel_Mode
250    *     for possible values.
251    *

254    *     the palette is stored.  Not used currently.
255    *
256    *   palette ::

296    *     The number of points in the outline.
297    *
298    *   points ::
299    *     A pointer to an array of `n_points` @FT_Vector elements, giving the
300    *     outline's point coordinates.
301    *
302    *   tags ::
303    *     A pointer to an array of `n_points` chars, giving each outline
304    *     point's type.
305    *
306    *     If bit~0 is unset, the point is 'off' the curve, i.e., a Bezier
307    *     control point, while it is 'on' if set.
308    *
309    *     Bit~1 is meaningful for 'off' points only.  If set, it indicates a
310    *     third-order Bezier arc control point; and a second-order control
311    *     point if unset.
312    *
313    *     If bit~2 is set, bits 5-7 contain the drop-out mode (as defined in
314    *     the OpenType specification; the value is the same as the argument to
315    *     the 'SCANMODE' instruction).
316    *
317    *     Bits 3 and~4 are reserved for internal purposes.
318    *
319    *   contours ::
320    *     An array of `n_contours` shorts, giving the end point of each
321    *     contour within the outline.  For example, the first contour is
322    *     defined by the points '0' to `contours[0]`, the second one is
323    *     defined by the points `contours[0]+1` to `contours[1]`, etc.
324    *
325    *   flags ::
326    *     A set of bit flags used to characterize the outline and give hints
327    *     to the scan-converter and hinter on how to convert/grid-fit it.  See
328    *     @FT_OUTLINE_XXX.

330    * @note:
331    *   The B/W rasterizer only checks bit~2 in the `tags` array for the first

369    *
370    *   FT_OUTLINE_OWNER ::
371    *     If set, this flag indicates that the outline's field arrays (i.e.,
372    *     `points`, `flags`, and `contours`) are 'owned' by the outline
373    *     object, and should thus be freed when it is destroyed.
374    *
375    *   FT_OUTLINE_EVEN_ODD_FILL ::
376    *     By default, outlines are filled using the non-zero winding rule.  If
377    *     set to 1, the outline will be filled using the even-odd fill rule
378    *     (only works with the smooth rasterizer).
379    *
380    *   FT_OUTLINE_REVERSE_FILL ::
381    *     By default, outside contours of an outline are oriented in
382    *     clock-wise direction, as defined in the TrueType specification.
383    *     This flag is set if the outline uses the opposite direction
384    *     (typically for Type~1 fonts).  This flag is ignored by the scan
385    *     converter.
386    *
387    *   FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS ::
388    *     By default, the scan converter will try to detect drop-outs in an
389    *     outline and correct the glyph bitmap to ensure consistent shape
390    *     continuity.  If set, this flag hints the scan-line converter to
391    *     ignore such cases.  See below for more information.
392    *
393    *   FT_OUTLINE_SMART_DROPOUTS ::
394    *     Select smart dropout control.  If unset, use simple dropout control.
395    *     Ignored if @FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS is set.  See below for more
396    *     information.
397    *
398    *   FT_OUTLINE_INCLUDE_STUBS ::
399    *     If set, turn pixels on for 'stubs', otherwise exclude them.  Ignored
400    *     if @FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS is set.  See below for more
401    *     information.
402    *
403    *   FT_OUTLINE_OVERLAP ::
404    *     This flag indicates that this outline contains overlapping contrours
405    *     and the anti-aliased renderer should perform oversampling to
406    *     mitigate possible artifacts.  This flag should _not_ be set for
407    *     well designed glyphs without overlaps because it quadruples the
408    *     rendering time.
409    *
410    *   FT_OUTLINE_HIGH_PRECISION ::
411    *     This flag indicates that the scan-line converter should try to
412    *     convert this outline to bitmaps with the highest possible quality.
413    *     It is typically set for small character sizes.  Note that this is
414    *     only a hint that might be completely ignored by a given
415    *     scan-converter.
416    *
417    *   FT_OUTLINE_SINGLE_PASS ::
418    *     This flag is set to force a given scan-converter to only use a
419    *     single pass over the outline to render a bitmap glyph image.
420    *     Normally, it is set for very large character sizes.  It is only a
421    *     hint that might be completely ignored by a given scan-converter.
422    *
423    * @note:
424    *   The flags @FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS, @FT_OUTLINE_SMART_DROPOUTS, and
425    *   @FT_OUTLINE_INCLUDE_STUBS are ignored by the smooth rasterizer.
426    *
427    *   There exists a second mechanism to pass the drop-out mode to the B/W
428    *   rasterizer; see the `tags` field in @FT_Outline.
429    *
430    *   Please refer to the description of the 'SCANTYPE' instruction in the
431    *   OpenType specification (in file `ttinst1.doc`) how simple drop-outs,
432    *   smart drop-outs, and stubs are defined.

784    *   Scanline Converter
785    *
786    * @abstract:
787    *   How vectorial outlines are converted into bitmaps and pixmaps.
788    *
789    * @description:
790    *   A raster or a rasterizer is a scan converter in charge of producing a
791    *   pixel coverage bitmap that can be used as an alpha channel when
792    *   compositing a glyph with a background.  FreeType comes with two
793    *   rasterizers: bilevel `raster1` and anti-aliased `smooth` are two
794    *   separate modules.  They are usually called from the high-level
795    *   @FT_Load_Glyph or @FT_Render_Glyph functions and produce the entire
796    *   coverage bitmap at once, while staying largely invisible to users.
797    *
798    *   Instead of working with complete coverage bitmaps, it is also possible
799    *   to intercept consecutive pixel runs on the same scanline with the same
800    *   coverage, called _spans_, and process them individually.  Only the
801    *   `smooth` rasterizer permits this when calling @FT_Outline_Render with
802    *   @FT_Raster_Params as described below.
803    *
804    *   Working with either complete bitmaps or spans it is important to think
805    *   of them as colorless coverage objects suitable as alpha channels to
806    *   blend arbitrary colors with a background.  For best results, it is
807    *   recommended to use gamma correction, too.
808    *
809    *   This section also describes the public API needed to set up alternative
810    *   @FT_Renderer modules.
