[ft] Drawing monochrome pixels into byte buffer

[Marco Wertz]

Hi,

what's the most efficient way to draw non-antialiased pixels into a byte 
buffer? I've had a 
look at FT_PIXEL_MODE_MONOCHROME but this uses only 1 bit per pixel whereas I 
want FreeType
to always plot 1 byte per pixel (255 for visible and 0 for invisible pixels). 
Setting "num_grays"
of FT_Bitmap to 2 didn't seem to have any effect with FT_Outline_Render().

So is there an easy way to make FT_Outline_Render() or FT_Outline_Get_Bitmap() 
draw monochrome
pixels as bytes instead of bits or do I have to do two passes, i.e. first draw 
monochrome
bits into a temporary bitmap and then map them to bytes?

Thanks!

Marco
