FreeType support

Interface to FreeType to generate font bitmaps run time.

Install FreeType

  • Download Freetype from here
  • make
  • sudo make install

Add FreeType to your project

  • Add include path: /usr/include/freetype2 (for GCC: -I/usr/include/freetype2 -L/usr/local/lib)
  • Add library: freetype (for GCC: -L/usr/local/lib -lfreetype)

Usage

Enable LV_USE_FREETYPE in lv_conf.h.

See the examples below.

Note that, the FreeType extension doesn't use LVGL's file system. You can simply pass the path to the font as usual on your operating system or platform.
