<h2>III. Examples</h2>
<p>For completeness, here again a link to
the <a href="example1.c">example</a> used and explained in
the <a href="step1.html">first part of the
tutorial</a>.</p>
<p><a href="mailto:erik@timetrap.se">Erik Möller</a>
contributed a very nice C++ example that shows renderer
callbacks in action to draw a coloured glyph with a
differently coloured outline. The source code can be
found <a href="example2.cpp">here</a>.</p>
<p><a href="example3.cpp">Another example</a> demonstrates
how to use FreeType's stand-alone B/W rasterizer,
<tt>ftraster.c</tt>. You need files from FreeType version
2.3.10 or newer.</p>
<p><a href="mailto:gsmiko@gmail.com">Róbert Márki</a>
contributed a small
<a href="example4.cpp">Qt demonstration program</a>
(together with its <a href="example4.pro">qmake file</a>)
that shows both direct rendering with a callback and
rendering with a buffer, yielding the same result. You
need FreeType 2.4.3 or newer.</p>
<p><a href="example5.cpp">Here</a> is some simple C++ code
(contributed
by <a href="https://www.staticjobs.com">Static Jobs
LLC</a>) that
uses <a href="../reference/ft2-outline_processing.html#ft_outline_decompose"><tt>FT_Outline_Decompose</tt></a>
to convert a glyph outline to the SVG format. As an
example, here is the <a href="example5.svg">resulting
file</a> of the call</p>
<pre>
example5 LiberationSerif-Bold.ttf @ > example5.svg</pre>
<p>(you can find the Liberation font
family <a href="https://fedorahosted.org/liberation-fonts/">here</a>).</p>
