Do you have any experience with TeX? I forgot to mention in the GSoC
description that this is a strong recommendation.
I've just updated the information on
https://www.freetype.org/gsoc.html
regarding the canonic references of the PK, GF, and VF font formats.
Please check again.
Regarding the implementation, you should have a look at bitmap drivers
already present in FreeType (`winfonts', `pcf', `bdf'; `winfonts' is
the simplest one). Essentially, you have to implement the necessary
methods of the module's `FT_Driver_ClassRec' structure.
