TTEngine (formerly known as ttrender.library) is a fast and quality text rendering engine for AmigaOS usin TrueType fonts.
Here are key features of TTEngine:
o Renders strings (not only single glyphs) with kerning.
o Has string metrics calculation functions.
o Renders to any RastPort in a system friendly manner (JAM1, JAM2, INVERSVID, COMPLEMENT modes supported).
o Works with OCS/ECS/AGA graphics chipsets as well as with graphics cards under CyberGraphX or Picasso96 control (all AGA modes supported including HAM and A2024).
o Optional antialiased text on 16 and 24 bit screens.
o User configurable antialias settings separately for every font face.
o Gamma correction improves the look of dark text on a light background.
o Optional text transparency (adjusted in 256 steps) on 16 and 24 bit screens.
o Supports many 8-bit character encodings and 16-bit Unicode standard.
o Has efficient, system-wide glyph bitmap caching system.
o Font database allows for flexible font files storage and classification.
o Application Programmer Interface highly compatible with graphics.library.
New in V4.1: text transparency, multilanguage font names support.
