*
* FT_PIXEL_MODE_MONO ::
* A monochrome bitmap, using 1~bit per pixel. Note that pixels are

*
* FT_PIXEL_MODE_GRAY ::
* An 8-bit bitmap, generally used to represent anti-aliased glyph
* images. Each pixel is stored in one byte. Note that the number of
* 'gray' levels is stored in the `num_grays` field of the @FT_Bitmap
* structure (it generally is 256).
*
* FT_PIXEL_MODE_GRAY2 ::
* A 2-bit per pixel bitmap, used to represent embedded anti-aliased

* found a single font using this format, however.
*
* FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD ::
* An 8-bit bitmap, representing RGB or BGR decimated glyph images used
* for display on LCD displays; the bitmap is three times wider than
* the original glyph image. See also @FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD.
*
* FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD_V ::

*
* FT_PIXEL_MODE_BGRA ::
* [Since 2.5] An image with four 8-bit channels per pixel,
* representing a color image (such as emoticons) with alpha channel.
* For each pixel, the format is BGRA, which means, the blue channel
* comes first in memory. The color channels are pre-multiplied and in

*
* @fields:
* rows ::
* The number of bitmap rows.
*
* width ::

* The pitch's absolute value is the number of bytes taken by one

* the bitmap has a 'down' flow, and negative when it has an 'up' flow.
* In all cases, the pitch is an offset to add to a bitmap pointer in

*
* For the B/W rasterizer, `pitch` is always an even number.

* To change the pitch of a bitmap (say, to make it a multiple of 4),

* This structure is used to describe an outline to the scan-line

*
* @fields:
* n_contours ::
* The number of contours in the outline.
*
* n_points ::
* The number of points in the outline.
*
* points ::
* A pointer to an array of `n_points` @FT_Vector elements, giving the
* outline's point coordinates.
*
* tags ::
* A pointer to an array of `n_points` chars, giving each outline
* point's type.
*
* If bit~0 is unset, the point is 'off' the curve, i.e., a Bezier
* control point, while it is 'on' if set.
*
* Bit~1 is meaningful for 'off' points only. If set, it indicates a
* third-order Bezier arc control point; and a second-order control
* point if unset.
*
* If bit~2 is set, bits 5-7 contain the drop-out mode (as defined in
* the OpenType specification; the value is the same as the argument to
* the 'SCANMODE' instruction).
*
* Bits 3 and~4 are reserved for internal purposes.
*
* contours ::
* An array of `n_contours` shorts, giving the end point of each
* contour within the outline. For example, the first contour is
* defined by the points '0' to `contours[0]`, the second one is
* defined by the points `contours[0]+1` to `contours[1]`, etc.
*
* flags ::
* A set of bit flags used to characterize the outline and give hints
* to the scan-converter and hinter on how to convert/grid-fit it. See
* @FT_OUTLINE_XXX.
*
* @note:
* The B/W rasterizer only checks bit~2 in the `tags` array for the first
* point of each contour. The drop-out mode as given with
* @FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS, @FT_OUTLINE_SMART_DROPOUTS, and

*
* @description:

* `flags` field.
*
* @values:
* FT_OUTLINE_NONE ::
* Value~0 is reserved.
*
* FT_OUTLINE_OWNER ::
* If set, this flag indicates that the outline's field arrays (i.e.,
* `points`, `flags`, and `contours`) are 'owned' by the outline
* object, and should thus be freed when it is destroyed.
*
* FT_OUTLINE_EVEN_ODD_FILL ::
* By default, outlines are filled using the non-zero winding rule. If
* set to 1, the outline will be filled using the even-odd fill rule
* (only works with the smooth rasterizer).
*
* FT_OUTLINE_REVERSE_FILL ::
* By default, outside contours of an outline are oriented in
* clock-wise direction, as defined in the TrueType specification.
* This flag is set if the outline uses the opposite direction
* (typically for Type~1 fonts). This flag is ignored by the scan
* converter.
*
* FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS ::
* By default, the scan converter will try to detect drop-outs in an
* outline and correct the glyph bitmap to ensure consistent shape
* continuity. If set, this flag hints the scan-line converter to
* ignore such cases. See below for more information.
*
* FT_OUTLINE_SMART_DROPOUTS ::
* Select smart dropout control. If unset, use simple dropout control.
* Ignored if @FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS is set. See below for more
* information.
*
* FT_OUTLINE_INCLUDE_STUBS ::
* If set, turn pixels on for 'stubs', otherwise exclude them. Ignored
* if @FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS is set. See below for more
* information.
*
* FT_OUTLINE_OVERLAP ::
* [Since 2.10.3] This flag indicates that this outline contains
* overlapping contours and the anti-aliased renderer should perform
* oversampling to mitigate possible artifacts. This flag should _not_
* be set for well designed glyphs without overlaps because it quadruples
* the rendering time.
*
* FT_OUTLINE_HIGH_PRECISION ::
* This flag indicates that the scan-line converter should try to
* convert this outline to bitmaps with the highest possible quality.
* It is typically set for small character sizes. Note that this is
* only a hint that might be completely ignored by a given
* scan-converter.
*
* FT_OUTLINE_SINGLE_PASS ::
* This flag is set to force a given scan-converter to only use a
* single pass over the outline to render a bitmap glyph image.
* Normally, it is set for very large character sizes. It is only a
* hint that might be completely ignored by a given scan-converter.
*
* @note:
* The flags @FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS, @FT_OUTLINE_SMART_DROPOUTS, and
* @FT_OUTLINE_INCLUDE_STUBS are ignored by the smooth rasterizer.
*
* There exists a second mechanism to pass the drop-out mode to the B/W
* rasterizer; see the `tags` field in @FT_Outline.
*
* Please refer to the description of the 'SCANTYPE' instruction in the
* OpenType specification (in file `ttinst1.doc`) how simple drop-outs,
* smart drop-outs, and stubs are defined.

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